Special VIP Experience at

Cannes Yachting Festival

For BoatTEST Members

Page-Name

Shown here is one of the two harbor venues that are used for the boat show in Cannes, which is held from September 10 – September 15, 2019.

There is no in-water boat show in Europe that is more glamorous and as prestigious as is the Cannes Yachting Festival. Boats on display range from small runabouts to large motoryachts, and everything in between. Home of the Cannes Film Festival, part of the boat show exhibit area inhabits some of the very same space. The treelined seaside corniche, sidewalk cafes, gourmet French restaurants, and cocktail lounges under tents on the beach all provide a romantic and exciting venue for a new boat search.

BoatTEST has organized a special VIP Experience at the show that is exclusive for its Members. It includes round-trip business class airfare, three nights at a 5-star hotel just a few feet from the harbor, round trip helicopter transfers from the Nice Cote d’Azur Airport to Cannes, a three-day show pass, cocktail parties, a show finale seafood dinner, and a special consultation with Capt. Steve on any boat at the show. BoatTEST staff will be on hand to introduce its Members to builders at the show.

The BoatTEST event package will be held on the last three days of the show, from September 13 to September 15, and travel dates are September 12 to September 16.

There will also be hundreds of engine, electronics and accessory exhibitors with products for all types and sizes of boats. This show has been going on since 1977 and it is the first show of the boating season. Many of the European major players in pleasure yachting come here to launch the show season by showcasing their new worldwide models.

BoatTEST staff will be on hand to help all Members find the boat they are looking for, and to introduce them to the builders. In the evening, all members will be invited to several on-boat cocktail parties to celebrate the occasion.

Capt. Steve will be on hand to consult with each of our Members attending to give his take on boats at the show, as well as discussing other boating equipment.

The deadline for sign-up is August 31, 2019, unless the event is sold out before then.
