This year’s METS ( Marine Equipment Trade Show) with Superyacht Pavilion, will take place as usual at the RAI centre , Amsterdam over the above period. The show, which seems to get bigger and better each year is a must see for those in the marine industry who haven’t previously been. There are over 1200 stands from all parts of the globe showcasing the very best and latest equipment in the industry, including Superyachts, and many use the show to launch new products for the following season.
Go to www.metstrade.com to find all the latest exhibitors and what’s on and where during the show.
For those travelling from Mallorca, it’s difficult to get there on the Tuesday directly, so I have done some homework and found the following flights for those interested in visiting for the 3 days, as Team Islander will be.
Palma – Barcelona Mon 18th 18.55 ( Vueling)
Barcelona – Amsterdam Tues 19th 07.00 ( Vueling)
Amsterdam – Barcelona Thurs 21st 17.50 ( Transavia)
Barcelona – Palma Thurs 21 st 21.30 ( Air Europa)
At the time of writing prices for the whole trip were around 170 euros ex all the add ons.
If anyone going fancies a get together whilst there email me at simon@theislander.net and I will try and coordinate something. The Hoppe Bar on Spuistraat is always a lively venue and is central ( 400 mtrs from Dam square) for most hotels.
See you there.
