New Zealand’s superyacht industry is on show this weekend to the world’s most discerning audience.
The Monaco Boat Show is the most prestigious event in a very high luxurious world and more than a dozen New Zealand boat builders and designers are exhibiting.
Gary Dickson, editor of the New Zealand yachtie magazine SeaSpray, is visiting Monaco this weekend and says the kiwis are more than holding their own.
He says 10 to 12% of the world’s superyacht industry is based in New Zealand. Dickson says one designer, Alan Warwick, has been to Monaco every year for 16 years
