   Great Britain is in a bit of a financial mess at the moment, the middle to upper earners hit as new yacht buyers especially (sound familiar to anyone? ).
   
   Liverpool was always going to be a bit small, like having an International Boat Show in Detroit. Outside. In winter. Not a smart move.
   
   Miami is in a slightly better position as there are less snow storms and howling gales there this time of year.

   The London show was ok as visitors but apparently leads where very slow.
   The UK should slow down to a single large international boat show, and the choice here should fall on Southampton. I think the current market conditions demand this.
   Another problem is that stand space at London is very expensive. Kinda sort of double to that of Dusseldorf where you have double the visitors and leads.
