Hiswa 2024: a first for Robust-MT and a first for our Robbie
HISWA 2024. Thanks to our friends at De Stille Boot, HISWA in-water boat show for the first time this year . From August 28th to September 1st, we were guests at the beautiful Bataviahaven in Lelystad. Check out our summary first.
Hiswa 2024 was a huge success for us, but also a very educational experience. First of all, it was a fantastic event and superbly organized. The weather was fantastic, the atmosphere was great, and our Robbie was very much in the spotlight as the smallest and most affordable electric sloop at the show.
The preparations also went smoothly, and we were so glad we'd brought the boat back on Sunday. After Sunday, September 1st, it looked like it would be a night shift, but that actually went very smoothly. We arrived home with the boat around 10:00 PM, which we really didn't expect.
Next year we will participate again and then we will do a few things differently:
- Driving up and down is impossible, next time we'll stay nearby
- It is recommended to bring your own food, 5 days of festival food is bad for your intestines and wallet
- We handed out stacks of business cards, but we should have registered a fraction of that number of phone numbers
