“The 2012 Marine Resources Boat Show party, held on Thursday 20th September, was once again a resounding success. Over 500 people attended the event raising over £620.00 for our nominated charities C.R.Y (Cardiac Risk in the Young) and The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust.
Exhibitors and industry professionals danced the night away at Wahoo bar until the early hours of the morning, letting off some steam after a busy week at the PSP Southampton Boat Show. Some fantastic raffle prizes were won on the night with further prizes awarded this week.
Marine Resources would like to thank all the generous companies who donated raffle prizes as well as Printing Crazy and 2ndHandDinghies.com for their continued support. A special thanks has to go to the team at the TheYachtMarket for sponsoring this year’s free drinks for the first 250 through the door.
James Ward, Managing Director of Marine Resources said: “This event just gets bigger and better every year. We are always really pleased to offer an event for all the boat show exhibitors and other marine industry people to get together and have some fun.
It really is those guys who come along who make the night. The atmosphere is always buzzing and we are more than happy to keep putting it on as long as people want to come”.
After last nights efforts on the dance floor the Marine Resources team think they should award a prize for the best dance moves, which should surely be awarded this year to the team from the British Marine Federation and National Boat Shows who performed a fantastic dance off.”
