There was plenty of interest in the Auckland On the Water Boat Show as the crowds seemed to get their first taste of America's Cup fever, after the announcement of the Environment Court Decision giving the America's Cup bases the go-ahead during the week.

This was the final time the Show will be held in the Viaduct Events Centre as it is taken over by Emirates Team New Zealand for their base for the 2021 and hopefully 2024 America's Cups.

Here's a second gallery of images from the day.
