hainan rendez vous 2012

It is the Year of the Water Dragon in China, and the leviathans will celebrate their reign at the upcoming Hainan Rendez-Vous boat show.

Ocean giants present at the event will include more than ten 40+ metre vessels among a fleet of 130 yachts.

In preparation for the 2012 edition, organisers have significantly expanded the show exhibition area through the use of five special purpose barges.

Major shipyards from overseas are returning to Sanya again this year in a clear affirmation of trust in the show concept introduced by China Rendez-Vous in 2009.

The shipyards include Luerssen, Heesen Yachts, Blohm+Voss, Royal Huisman, Kingship, Oceanco, Feadship, Brunswick, Jeanneau, Beneteau, CNB, Azimut – Benetti, San Lorenzo, Ferretti Group, Marquis, Sunseeker and Princess Yachts.

The superyachts will include the spacious 44.65m Helix built by Feadship; the 50m Northern Sun, a unique expedition yacht converted from a Japanese marine research vessel; the impressive Lohengrin, a 161-foot (49m) by Trinity.

Also sure to delight will be Horizon’s new Lady Gaga, a 33.5m superyacht designed specifically for the Chinese market, as well as the sleek 38.5m Onyx by Sanlorenzo.

Megayacht builders have found Hainan Rendez-Vous especially interesting because the event attracts many of China’s most elite businessmen.

At least 300 ultra high net worth individuals will be flown as VVIP guests to and from the show on private jets this year by participating jet manufacturers.

The third annual Hainan Rendez-Vous, China’s leading superyacht and business jet show, will be held on the 5th-8th of April 2012.
