2008 Vessel Information

Isle of Wight based catamaran builders and Seawork exhibitors Cheetah Marine have launched the first of their new 11m series, the largest Cheetah ever built, and will be commuting to the show daily in one of their latest newbuilds.

Kent UK based V RIBS Ltd will launch a new range of offshore commercial RIBs at the Seawork International 2008. The newly designed boats, ranging in length from 9m to 15m and capable of speeds above 50 knots, are on display for the first time at the international show

South Boats Special Projects Ltd of Cowes on the Isle of Wight heads to Seawork 2008 with three vessels to display on the floating pontoon.
