Visitors flocked to the Horizon Motor Yacht Australia display during the five-day show, eager to tour the three luxury yachts and inquire about build projects and new models and designs.

Horizon CEO John Lu attended the show this year on the behalf of the Taiwan Yacht Industry Association, accompanying the deputy mayor of Kaohsiung and his team to visit Brisbane to promote the 2014 Taiwan International Boat Show, which will take place on May 5th to 11th.
