Camper & Nicholsons Yachting Ltd will be present at the Dubai International Boatshow at the Dubai International Marine Club, Mina Seyahl, from 3 - 7 March 2009.

The Dubai show is the largest of its kind in the region. For the 17th edition of the show, Camper & Nicholsons will be represented in two locations. Naturally enough for a name associated over time with some of the finest sail and motor yachts in the world, Camper & Nicholsons Yachting Ltd will be exhibiting in the Luxury Supplies & Services area (Stand A4). It will also have a presence in the Marina at Stand 173.

Camper & Nicholsons was founded in Gosport in 1782 and has been synonymous with the creation of some of the most beautiful and famous yachts in the world. In 2001, Camper & Nicholsons have decided to start again a project to develop a modern interpretation of its early 1900s range of motor launches, including the Gelyce fast tenders introduced in the 1930s. The first model to be developed was the Endeavour 42. Created as a luxurious 'commuter boat', the Endeavour 42 derives its name from the renowned J Class yacht built for Sir Thomas Sopwith to compete in the 1934 America's Cup.

Subsequent powerboat designs for the stbale have also taken their name from other J Class yachts built by Camper & Nicholsons, such as the Velsheda 50, the Velsheda 50 Open and the Shamrock 60. Whilst all three models feature recognisable "family look", deep 'V' planning hulls and large, comfortable accommodation, the Velsheda 50 and Shamrock 60 also incorporate covered aft facing cockpits, an ideal environment for luxurious pleasure boating in Middle Eastern waters.
