Windermere unveils new sustainable GT Mono Light class
Windermere’s third sustainable race day introduced a new national class and underlined growing momentum behind lower-carbon powerboat racing.
Following the record-breaking success of Metstrade 2024, the upcoming Metstrade 2025 edition – set to take place from 18th to 20th November in Amsterdam – is already attracting strong exhibitor interest, despite the challenging market, with the demand for stand space exceeding that of previous years.
The addition of 8,000 square metres in Hall 8 is a key highlight for Metstrade 2025. Hall 8 is dedicated to superyacht technology and refits, sectors experiencing rapid growth. The new space will also feature a dedicated theatre showcasing the latest industry trends and innovations, alongside a new restaurant designed to enhance networking opportunities.


Director Niels Klarenbeek commented: ‘The outstanding early interest in this year’s event demonstrates the industry’s resilience and drive for innovation. The Metstrade exhibition continues to drive growth and facilitate connections, and we look forward to welcoming the global leisure marine industry once again in November.’
