THE Poole Harbour Boat Show is set to return to the town in 2020, after being officially launched at the RNLI College.

Running from Friday, June 12 to Sunday, June 14, the show is now second only to Southampton Boat Show in the UK, with the launch event being attended by stalwarts of the UK marine industry alongside local businesses.

Jim Stewart, chief executive of Poole Harbour Commissioners, introduced the plans for the 2020 show so far, including the addition of a Seafood Festival which will showcase local produce taken from waters around the region.
