All in all, spread over nearly 90 acres (36 hectares) and with 6 miles (9.65 km) of pontoons, this in-water boat show is considered the biggest in the world - and attracted 100,000 visitors. Perhaps you were among them, as we sent our newsletter subscribers invitations and even a few VIP passes...
FLIBS is also quite a cash machine, bringing in nearly $2 billion for the local economy. As for multihulls, there were no premieres among the cruising boats, but most of the major manufacturers attended. There was also a notable increase in the number of fishercats - most of which were grouped together in the Convention Center.
