boatica celebrated it's 22nd edition of the Boat Show boatica Cape Town is Africa's boating exhibition set against the backdrop of the beautiful Mother City. The event features manufacturers and buyers of luxury boats, accessories, and marine equipment, a once-in-a-lifetime Ultimate Yacht Experience, sophisticated exhibiting companies, live on-water activities, and a luxury lifestyle exhibition for a premium shopping experience. From sailing competitions to SUP racing, dragon boat racing and test sails. Book an exclusive Ultimate Luxury Yacht experience onboard the beautiful Ocean Princess. The offer includes a ticket to the boat show, a 2-hour round trip to Camps Bay, snacks and refreshments during the cruise. When the seas are running too high or the wind is unpleasantly strong, instead of heading out to Camps Bay the destination will be the Cape Town Harbour. With winds above 30 knots, the skipper will take every aspect into account, and even stay dockside to ensure the safety of the passengers. The skippers decision is final and no further discussion or correspondence will be entered into. Dragon Boat racing is an energetic, colourful and exciting team sport with ancient Chinese cultural traditions. This year we had six teams participating including Mujaji - named after a dragon that is said to look like a great feathered serpent and lives on Table Mountain (Xhosa folklore), Amabelle Belles - part of an international movement of dragon boat racing among breast cancer survivors as well as the Paddlesnappers, Dragon Warriors amongst others.
