Southampton International Boatshow 2023

We are always reminded that another year is coming to a close when we finish shooting at the annual Southampton International Boatshow Lunch with Hampshire Chamber of Commerce, Paris Smith LLP, Leonardo Group, and British Marine.

This event goes from strength to strength and each year there is something new. This year was no exception: Daredevil Stunts, Incredible Yachts, Inspirational Speakers, Great Company – this event has it all!

Annual Boat Show Lunch with Hampshire Chamber

We are pleased to confirm that the Southampton International Boat Show is back with a vengeance. The show was opened by members of the British Sailing Team fresh from Tokyo 2020, and people came out in force to support them and to enjoy the sea air.  With over 600 global brands represented there was truly something for everyone.

John Rose Photography were privileged to be able to attend and photograph the prestigious Hampshire Chamber of Commerce Boat Show Lunch – the Hampshire Chamber really do know how to put on an event, and it was great to see so many people enjoying the face to face networking again. Hosted by Gary Whittle (Meachers Global Logistics), Gareth Miller (Carswell Gould) and Peter Taylor (Paris Smith LLP) at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Southampton Grand Harbour, the audience was treated to talks by guest speakers Lesley Robinson (British Marine), Mark Denton (MaxVMG) and Councillor Daniel Fitzhenry (Southampton City Council), and a good time was had by all.

Unfortunately we can also report that as John’s lottery numbers did not come in on Saturday, his order for the new Sunseeker had to be postponed – gutted!
