Speaking on the first boat show of its kind in the region, Mustafa Al Hashimi, Club Manager of Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club, said:
"Driven by growing demand and interest from boat owners, the Dubai Used Boat Show is a response to an enormous gap in the market, bringing buyers and sellers directly together. Currently there is no event like it in the UAE. Any marine retailer or boat owner interested in trading up or down should make use of this ideal opportunity to showcase their vessels and equipment to the local yachting community at very affordable rates in the heart of Dubai."
Combining great deals on over forty used vessels of all sizes from world renowned manufacturers, alongside leading marine traders covering finance, insurance, accessories, maintenance services and supplies, the Dubai Used Boat Show offers absolutely everything an aspiring or current boat owner could possibly need in one convenient location.

Whether only starting out or an experienced yachtsman, this is the perfect and only occasion to consider options on the used market and learn more by speaking to the local experts. Getting out onto the water is a very simple pleasure, yet currently yachting in the Middle East has ultra exclusive image of superyachts affordable only to the few. However, enjoying the beautiful waters off the UAE's coast does not need to be out of reach, there are affordable options as the Used Boat Show will clearly highlight."

Typically it is very rare for berths to become available at Dubai Creek, but with capacity currently available and the Dubai Used Boat Show taking place in November there could be no better time to get involved and sample the spirit of sailing. With excellent deal on quality vessels from 18ft and upwards displayed on land and water, experts on hand, leading traders showcasing their latest equipment the Dubai Used Boat show is a must-attend event."
Far more than just a boat show, the event includes a host of fun attractions geared towards entertaining the entire family on a day out.
