fashion shows, and the first night-time
swim across the waters of the port.
Another initiative popular with visitors
was staged by a group of exhibitors and
sailing schools. In cooperation with the
Boat Show and with the aim of promoting
sailing for beginnings, they offered all buy-
ers of small craft courses enabling them
to obtain the Sailing Licence.
The show strengthened its position
as the sector’s main platform by staging
a large programme of conferences and
professional seminars, including a debate
led by the National Association of Nautical
Companies (ANEN) on the subject of the
international boat market. Major regattas,
such as the Barcelona World Race 2018,
were also presented.
The Boat Show, organised with the
support and cooperation of ANEN,
received more than 55,000 visitors both
domestic and international, the latter
mainly from France, Germany, Italy and
Portugal.
90% of boats in Spain
are less then
