The Dutch dive show, Duikvaker, was held in Houten on 1-2 February.
The German boat show which includes diving, Boot, is massive in comparison, but Duikvaker being purely diving is, as a result, very manageable. Many of the dive companies who exhibited at Boot were at Duikvaker so a large array of equipment was there both from distributors and dealers to poke, prod, try on and lust over. I was very tempted by the heated vests from Venture Heat!
PADI ran its annual Member Forum and explained that they had increased their commitment to Duikvaker and intended to continue with that.
A good number of photographic equipment manufacturers, distributors and dealers attended including Sea and Sea, Seacam, Anchor Dive Lights, Onderwaterhuis and SeaLife.
Sorry, still no sign of that underwater unicorn, the Inon Z-xxx
If Houten, which is just south of Utrecht, is easier for you to reach than Dusseldorf, Duikvaker is worth a look for future years. More information about the show is here:
