POWERBOATPRO ANNOUNCES MEDIA PARTNERSHIP WITH BLADERUN WESTERN EUROPE
ROTTERDAM, 8/24/10
PowerboatPro today announced a media partnership with powerboat rally franchise organization BladeRun Western Europe.
Based in the UK, BladeRun International developed their concept for powerboat rallies and lifestyle parties that revolve around the powerboating lifestyle. The concept is being franchised and BladeRun Western Europe, based in Rotterdam the Netherlands, will hold the next BladeRun event from 22 until 25 September.
The rally will involve three stages with world-class parties in every city visited. Rotterdam, Antwerp and Ostend will be participating cities in this upcoming BladeRun event and PowerboatPro will cover the full four days of fun both on and off the water.
“We are really looking forward to cooperating with PowerboatPro and to the coverage of our next event,” Boyd Wahr, the driving force behind BladeRun Western Europe said. “It is our firm believe that two A-brands like BladeRun and PowerboatPro will strengthen each other in our common goal to get more and better exposure for powerboating. I think PowerboatPro plays a key part in reaching this goal and that other organizers should pursue a partnership with them.”
“Having a rally on the water is just part of our concept” Boyd explains. “We are rekindling the spirit of adventurous races like the London – Monte Carlo races of old. Some people have also compared what we do with the Dakar or the Gumball 3000 on the water. Speed is part of what we bring but with our world class parties in every city we visit, the BladeRun should be fun, fun, fun for all participants.”
Peter van Gameren, chief editor of PowerboatPro added, “We are really proud to have BladeRun choose us as an official media partner. It has always been is my goal to make information about powerboat racing and lifestyle easily available to both fans and general audience alike and we always strive to have a close cooperation with all organizations we report on. With an exciting brand such as BladeRun choosing us as partner, it tells me we are on the right track to achieving those goals, and I am looking forward to our continued cooperation in the future.”
