This week we bring you a video about our attendance to METS Trade (Marine Equipment Trade Show) – the largest in the world!!

Originally invited by Mantus Anchors, but made possible by BRNKL (they put five of us YouTubers up for the week, and we’ll be forever grateful for that), we had such a blast trying to visit the over 900 vendors showing.

Much of it was window shopping – the best of the best that we *wish* we could be adding to our catamaran, yet we’re only left drooling behind a shiny display. However, there were companies represented that we do want to work with, and it was a great chance to talk face to face with the heads of departments.

Not that there wasn’t some partying to be had as well….After all, we were in Amsterdam.

So, between the trade show, and the get togethers, and me losing my passport on the plane, there was never a dull moment while we were there!

Take a look at our newest video, focused on the Trade Show, and in two weeks we’ll have our coverage of touring KB Alubouw and KM Yacht Builders while in the Netherlands.

We hope you enjoy!
