The stations will provide both visitors and exhibitors with the opportunity to top up their water bottles with Southampton’s finest fresh water. Southern Water provides the water which comes from both the River Itchen and underground sources in the chalk at Otterbourne, Hampshire.

Seawork organisers are keen to avoid the purchase of single use bottles of water and are encouraging everyone at the exhibition to follow their lead and make use of the sponsored water facilities which will be in every hall.

Established in 1969, Everard Insurance is a forward-thinking independent broker. It has two in-house schemes specifically tailored for marine businesses and is able to provide a wide range of covers including Marine Traders Combined, Combined Liabilities, Marine Installations, Builders Risks, Professional Indemnity, Contractors All Risks and associated insurances.

Everard Insurance says, “With our exclusive scheme arrangement we feel that we will be able to provide you with something a little different from your existing insurance provider. Although we deal with a wide range of providers we draw the line at providing "cheap" cover at the expense of quality. We are happy to avoid those providers who offer poor service, substandard policies or inferior cover. All of our clients deserve better cover year on year”.
