World's most luxurious boat builders to showcase latest designs in Dubai

Dubai will reaffirm its position as the region's leading showcase for luxury yachts and high-end craft, when the Dubai International Boat Show 2008 takes place at the Dubai International Marine Club - Mina Seyahi from 11-15 March.

DIBS will welcome over 800 participating companies and nearly 400 boats to this year's event, the highest number since the show was launched in 1992. A total of 10 superyachts will be talking pride of place at this year's event. Companies from every part of the industry, from boat-builders through to marine equipment, suppliers and service providers, are set to exhibit. The prestige and international positioning of this premier marine event, combined with the strong local demand for luxury boats, has propelled DIBS into a position where many of the world's leading boat-builders are competing for space. DIBS has become one of the world's primary show-grounds for superyachts, the outstanding 23 metres plus (82 feet) luxury craft that have come to represent the highest-end of the marine leisure market. Four of the worlds largest yachts - including the magnificent 160m Platinum - are now owned by individuals and organizations based in the Middle East. DIBS is sponsored Dubai Maritime City.
