Exhibitors had been making sales from the start of the 2012 Show. After the first weekend, Drascombe by Churchhouse Boats had sold two boats, which gives Simon Harwood, Production Manager, about six months of work. By the end of Wednesday Ultrasonic Antifouling was on an even par with last year’s Show on sales after five days and Bates Wharf had sold two Bayliners and a Sessa C32, with lots of interest in their boats outside on the Used Boats Marina in association with YachtWorld.com.
We are pleased with the Tullett Prebon London Boat Show. In terms of retail sales we are ahead of the same time last year. We'll be back next year
The world is a difficult place currently but we are very pleased with our result in this environment and look forward to 2013
This is the best London Show for six years
Princess Yachts is very pleased to announce another successful Tullett Prebon London Boat Show with sales exceeding expectations. “While we are under no illusion that we still face many challenges across our international markets, we are delighted that the positive progress we saw in sales at the PSP Southampton Boat Show has continued into London and it is an encouraging start to the New Year
I just finished an order for 10 of our new Crabber 12, having sold quite a few already during the week, plenty of interest from groups like the scouts and lots of interest in our other boats. We’ve had a very good show
Our sales figure continues to grow at the Show with the level of interest remaining very high. The new range of Mariner Boats has made its debut here at the Show targeting a gap in the market for small to medium size river launches that are stylish and affordable. Whilst all models have proven popular at the show the Mariner 421, with three sold, is currently in the lead closely followed by the Mariner 560 and the Mariner 520. ABC has also been approached by several dealers along the Thames as well as two dealers near to the Norfolk Broads all wanting to become stocking dealers, showing that even in the current economic conditions the right products will always sell
Val Wyatt Marine, representing Interboat and Jetten Yachting of Holland and Viking Moulding, is pleased to advise that following a successful Southampton Boat Show (no boats were sold but 11 sales: four Jetten, three Interboat, and four Vikings were made from direct enquiries at the Show), London 2012 seems as positive with four trials now booked already and a great number of serious leads to follow up. It is with note that both the Dutch companies we represent continue with a commitment to the UK boat shows and have already confirmed their attendance at Southampton in September 2012. Also both Interboat and Jetten are now using the UK shows to launch their new products with the world premiers of the Interboat 640 and Jetten 30 Sedan here at this show
We’re happy with the level of business and the quality of customer. It’s been as good as we had hoped it would be. The Show helps deliver our brand and build business for the coming months
There has been much more quality of people to the stand. The people that are here want to be here. I have had some good leads for both permanent and temporary clients. It’s been a good Show overall
We’ve had a great show, with a steady stream of quality customers throughout. We found it particularly busy the last few days and have seen some strong sales, especially on the larger Turbojets and the new Dieseljet range. There has been particular interest in the 565 Dieseljet, with several orders for yacht tenders and as standalone day boats. The Tullett Prebon London Boat Show seems to have attracted a lot more foreign visitors than the Southampton Boat Show, and we have sold boats to China, Brazil and the US. Overall, an excellent start to the year for Williams
