“Those boats think they're so clever!”
― James

The Boatshow is a rhyming magazine story.

Plot

A boatshow is taking place on the Island, and Sir Topham Hatt gives James the job of taking visitors to the show. James is unhappy; all the passengers are taking notice of the boats and not him. So, James' crew sets to polishing him up to make him gleam. Then, he gives a loud toot on the whistle and promptly steals the show!
