Hong Kong International Boat Show posts positive results

The Hong Kong International Boat Show 2024 ended with positive response from both exhibitors and visitors. The Show, organised by Club Marina Cove, is widely regarded by the boating industry as the premier event in the Asia Pacific.

The 25th Edition has on display some 50 boats from Italy, France, Finland, Spain, UK, USA and China. The four-day event attracted some 5,000 visitors.

With the increasing popularity of boating, the demand for boats of different designs and makes has grown steadily. Hong Kong’s unique waterscape of 261 islands is a distinct asset to its development as a major boating centre.

Club Marina Cove General Manager, Miss Winnie Ng, said the Club will continue to support the development of the boating industry which has a growing importance in the local economy. We hope the Government could recognise the increasing demand for pleasure boat moorings and berths. An increase could benefit the industry which in turn contributes to more employment and business for shipyards, marine equipment, services and supplies and marine tourism.

The Show is widely regarded as Hong Kong’s most popular and successful boating event which serves as an important platform for the promotion of boating and water sports as well as other related trades including financing, insurance and marine communications.
