FERRARI JUMP ON BOARD PHUKET BOAT SHOW

With close to 90 percent of space sold six weeks before the second Phuket Boat Show opens, the organizers say this year's show has more of a lifestyle flavour than 2003. Phuket International Marine Expo (PIMEX) 2004 will be held at Phuket's Boat Lagoon marina from 9 - 12 December and Ferrari will be among the exhibitors.

PHUKET BOAT SHOW DOUBLES IN SIZE

Phuket boat show organisers Image Asia Events yesterday announced that they have doubled the capacity of the show's air-conditioned exhibition space for the 2004 show, to be held in Phuket, Thailand from 9 - 12 December this year, making it the biggest ever boat show to be held in South East Asia.

ZERO BOAT TAX DREAM BECOMES REALITY
From 18 February 2004, boats in the following categories imported into Thailand will not have to pay import or excise taxes: (1) inflatables; (2) sailboats (with or without auxiliary motor); (3) motorboats (other than outboard motorboats); (4) other. VAT, currently at 7%, will still apply.

FIRST PHUKET BOAT SHOW - A Winner
Hailed by marine industry exhibitors as a resounding success, Phuket’s first international boat show – PIMEX 2003 – closed on Wednesday, after four days in which many exhibitors reported excellent sales, others solid enquiries and still more found new distributors in Thailand.
