The inaugural PHUKET RENDEZVOUS is a very important show for us and numerous boat deals have been attributed to us taking part. This year we are concentrating on the commercial sector quite heavily as we have seen a sizeable increase in demand for boats, which are driven mainly by the tourism sector. Our available line of charter friendly boats from Silvercraft is key to our business here in Thailand and they are selling well. Also on display we will show an Oryx 36 family sports cruiser and two Majesty yachts which again are both excellent charter vessels. We are sure that this year's show will net us great results.
