South Australia's most comprehensive recreational marine exhibition opens next week at the Adelaide Convention Centre, and promises to satisfy everyone who loves boating, or aspires to spend more time on the water.

From prestige watercraft, to practical fishing vessels, tinnies and kayaks, the Adelaide Boat Show is a fun family day out, representing an exciting weekend for everyone who loves boating on the fabulous waterways and coastal areas in this great part of Australia.

With floor capacity now filled with exhibitors, the exhibition at the Convention Centre will feature new watercraft, kayaks, jet skis, engines, trailers and accessories, as well as state-of-the-art communications, safety and fish finding technologies.

Domenic Genua, General Manager of Marketing and Events for the Boating Industry Association Ltd who organise the show, said the enthusiasm for the event reflects SA's love of recreational boating, fishing, skiing and wake boarding. "We're at full capacity, with many exhibitors now trying to squeeze every last inch out of their exhibition space," he said. "This will be a show where anyone who loves spending time on the water will be further inspired by the range of boats and all the gear that goes with them, all in the one place."

A number of local, interstate and international businesses are presenting new releases and water sporting products, including some very exciting water skiing and wakeboarding craft, a growing sport in the state.

Adult entry tickets to the show are $10, with kids 6-17 years of age $5. Kids 5 years old and younger are admitted free when accompanied by an adult. To purchase tickets online, visit www.adelaideboatshow.com.au and click on the orange 'Buy Tickets' button. Fill in the payment details and the tickets are subsequently sent to your email address.

The show is open from the 28th to the 30th of June at the Adelaide Convention Centre. Up to date details regarding the show are available at www.adelaideboatshow.com.au.
