Purple Marine and Laser have been advertising 'Boat Show deals' on their website and in the official show guide, but neither are actually at the show! I think this is shocking, considering so many other companies are parting with their money to have a stand at the show!

I heard that Laser are their but on someone else's stand.

Has anyone who has been seen Laser at the show?

I'm working weekends at the show. There is no laser presence at the show at all.

Maybe they have decided that the yotty based shows don't give value for money for a dinghy company? No SB3, though?

I dropped in the show for an hour or so today, too much to do to stay any longer I'm afraid.

No sign of a Laser anywhere.... for those who may still be worried.

Plenty of clothing offers around the stands, usual cheap rope bits too, you have to have a good look round before buying just to compare what is available.

Certainly worth a visit if your in the area.

the official answer taken from their site http://uk.laserperformance.com/special-events/summeroffers - here

LaserPerformance End of Summer Offers

As part of a concerted effort to focus our marketing, the ownership group of LaserPerformance has requested that we focus our attention on our web activities and broader public media. As a result, LaserPerformance will not be attending the 2010 Southampton Boat Show.
