what is that show called?  Wind, power, watersport?  Whatever.  Is anyone going, has anyone been?  Is it worth the journey into hideous London and the £14 for a ticket?

went on wednesday, found it was ok as a show, it seemed a lot smaller than last year and i must admit it isn't anything on EXcel or Dinghy Show, but i didn't expect it to be. some nice looking boats though, especially the musto and a lovely FD

Smaller than last year? Crikey, I felt it was a bit light on "stuff" then!

Earls court 2 is the bigger "half". If they're also not using the upstairs in 1, then it's WAY under half the size of last year's show in terms of floor space.
