20 YEARS

ON THE WATER

A

uckland’s On Water Boat Show celebrates its 20th anniversary

this year – and the 2018 event promises to showcase more

boats, engines, marine electronics and safety equipment

than ever before.

First held in 1999, the Show was an initiative of the NZ Marine

Industry Association – then called the Boating Industry Association –

and proved extremely popular with exhibitors and the boating public.

The Viaduct Harbour site will again host this year’s event, with

no disruptions expected despite Emirates Team New Zealand’s

announcement that it will use the ANZ Viaduct Event Centre, home to

many of the boat show’s undercover exhibits, as its America’s Cup base.

“It will be business as usual,” says show organiser Stacey Cook,

“and NZ Marine will work with Emirates Team New Zealand to

ensure the best outcome for exhibitors and the public at the 2019,

2020 and 2021 events.”

NZ Marine is expecting more than 200 New Zealand and

international businesses, including marine engine and electronics

suppliers, to exhibit this year, making it one of the biggest in the

event’s 20-year history.

Held at Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour, the show runs from

September 27 to 30.
