Specialist Small Craft supplies Kontra R450CC to Southampton lifeboat service
Wiltshire-based Specialist Small Craft has supplied a Kontra R450CC rescue boat to the newly formed Southampton Independent Lifeboat service.
The 2019 British Motor Yacht Show, which took place at Swanwick Marina in May, saw seven boat model debuts, featured a 65-boat exhibition and showcased 18 of the world’s best-known motor boat brands.
More in the style of a boutique show and designed to offer a more intimate experience, the brands exhibiting included the likes of Axopar, Azimut, Bavaria, Chris-Craft, Invictus, Prestige and Fairline, among several other market leaders.
Princess Motor Yacht Sales unveiled their new Princess R35, a fully carbon 50-knot craft powered by V8 engines, while Sunseeker Southampton had 14 Sunseekers on display, including the Sunseeker Manhattan 66.
The 2019 show, which was supported by live music entertainment and an artisan gin bar, built on the success of previous years, with luxury motor car brands, courtesy of Brabus and Rybrook, complementing the motor yachts displayed.
