    I just got into Cannes this evening, headed down to the Vieux Port for a look, plenty of nice yachts, also quite a few docked off the coast too. Looking forward to heading in for a good look tommorow and possibly Monday.

    I will post the pics online for all interested.

    The show was a lot bigger than I expected, there were plenty of trade exhibitors selling anything from SeaBob's to Jaguars to Binoculars.

    It was very difficult to get onto most of the boats, a lot were only open to booked visits. Though I did get to manage a visit of the Princess 95 which was pretty amazing, got plenty of photos of that, and also a tour of the Sunseeker Predator 74 and 72.

    Hope you enjoy the photos, I got very distracted while there that there may be a lacking of some photos.

    Anytime, I thought it was the least I could do considering how much I have enjoyed the photos and reviews on here.

    I will be on the Riviera for the next couple of weeks, so will be around for the Monaco Yacht show in 9 days time. Hope to get more pics from there.

    That would definitely be superb! Monaco Show is one of the times I wait around for every year. There is always someone around YF to bring the shows to those who cannot make it. On behalf of the YF admin and everyone else YF salutes you and you all.
