Dubai, March 4, 2009 (WAM) - The 17th edition of the Dubai International Boat Show was inaugurated yesterday by H.H Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President, Dubai Civil Aviation Authority and Chairman and Chief Executive, Emirates Airline and Group.

The show is set to attract tens of thousands of visitors with numerous new and exciting initiatives throughout the five-day event.
The Dubai International Boat Show, running from 3-7 March 2009 has also recorded significant growth across key areas, with over 400 boats on exhibit and a 45% growth in the Superyacht display.
Presenting a massive 85000 square metres of exhibition space with more than 721 international companies from 50 countries of which 20% are new exhibiting companies and brands.
The show will also be the preferred platform for at least five major global premiers and more than 22 regional launches and will feature the spectacular Superyacht Extravaganza, a laser light display showcasing the latest yachts.
Visitors to the event can also take advantage of the many competitions and promotions including vouchers to spend on Paspaley supplied by Damas and a chance to win the Emirates Yachting Grew 188 or a Yamaha Wave Runner. In addition, every 100th paid visitor to the show will receive a luxury Cole Haan tote bag filled with Damas giveaways.
The Dubai International Boat Show has evolved into one of the world's most influential marine events, visited by thousands of local residents and international visitors, according to said Helal Saeed Almarri, CEO, Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), organiser of Dubai International Boat Show.
The show, he added, is one of the few worldwide events where buyers actually place their orders and buy onsite during the event. This year's Dubai Boat Show will be by far the strongest and most exciting show in the event's history and we look forward to welcoming new and returning visitors.
