We spotted Alice rollerblading around the Southampton Boat Show with a sign that said "Information: Stop Me and Ask!" So we did. Watch our First Looks at boats in the UK: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsiC-0C78AkFVMBJCxb_YPzSD63W1wk7s Read more: http://blog.boats.com/2013/10/alice-the-info-girl-best-of-the-southampton-boat-show/ For more boat videos, visit www.boats.com. Our 2013 European boat show tour provided a lot of unexpected surprises: finding a relatively affordable one-man submarine, a hovercraft designed for kids, and the world's most powerful production PWC, to name a few. But one of the best finds wasn't a thing at all: it was Alice the Info Girl. We discovered Alice zooming around the show on a pair of roller-blades, equipped with a big sign that said "Information, Stop and Ask" and a FRS radio. She was also armed with a vast array of knowledge: how to get around the show, directions to different displays, and tips on numerous attractions. And if she didn't know the answer to your questions right off the top of her head, she'd call and find out. Now, she wasn't the only info-helper skating around the show. In fact, there was a troop of them blasting this way and that, helpfully answering questions from show-goers. And they all had one thing in common, which explains why they were so good on roller-blades. For the other info-bladers, this common thread wouldn't raise an eyebrow. But when it came to Alice... well, we'll let her explain for herself.

The NEW C-Cat 65 is one of the Stars of the Show at Cannes this year. The builder, 🇮🇹 Comar Yachts have over fifty years of boatbuilding heritage and thousands of yachts built, many of which have distinguished themselves on racing circuits worldwide. ▫️ The world class team behind this luxury performance catamaran includes Enrico Contreas, known for his high-performance multihull designs; Marco Amadio and his design studio; Naval Design for structural calculations, FEM verifications, and CFD simulations; and, of course Comar Yachts’ technical office.  ▫️ Carbon: Where It Matters Most ▫️ A full carbon deck reduces weight aloft and lowers the center of gravity. ▫️ Carbon daggerboards: ultra-light and strong, delivering superior upwind performance. ▫️ Carbon Crossbeam, bowsprit, bulkheads, and structural parts to ensure torsional rigidity and precise handling in the most demanding sailing conditions. ▫️ A pre-preg carbon mast built in house for lightness, strength, and control. ▫️ The hulls are built from a carbon-glass composite, offering a balance of stiffness, lightweight performance, and durability under stress. ▫️ The C▫️-Cat 65 is built using a double-cut Corecell sandwich infused with epoxy resin through a vacuum infusion processes for a market leading weight-to-stiffness ratio, minimized material waste, and structural consistency. ▫️ The bulkheads, longitudinal beam, and structural elements are both bonded and tabbed; even the furniture contributes to overall rigidity, ensuring long-term durability and strength. ▫️ The reverse rake carbon coachroof with inverted windows offers excellent visibility with reduced solar glare and they keep solar heat out of the interiors ▫️ #multihulls #boatshow #catamaran @c-catamarans3865
