What to Know Before the 2023/2024 Boat Show Season
As the remaining calendar pages grow thin, the most wonderful time of the year draws near: Boat Show Season. From the famous FLIBS taking place this fall to a trio of shows happening early next year, we’re eagerly anticipating the 2023/2024 lineup. Come find HMY at each of the following events.
Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), October 25 - 29, 2023
FLIBS is the largest in-water boat show in the world, and we have an exciting display fit for the occasion. This October, attendees can join us for some exclusive peeks and unveilings, including:
Viking Yachts 90' Open Bridge Convertible
The first in its class, Viking’s 90' Open Bridge Convertible will be on display. A unique departure from their enclosed bridge and sky bridge models of the same size, this 90C is a must-see for sportfishing enthusiasts. Like the rest in its class, the 90 delivers on the speed, performance, and aesthetics for which the Viking name has become known.
The Valhalla Fleet
See the Valhalla Boatworks fleet in its entirety, with models ranging in size from 33 to 55 feet. Owned and operated by Viking Yacht Company, Valhalla Boatworks was introduced in 2019 and has since revolutionized the luxury center console with their high-performance V series. Whether you’re an angler, prefer sport cruising, or are seeking a luxury yacht, their impressive inventory has something to offer everyone.
The Nimbus W11
Making its North American debut at this year’s FLIBS, the Nimbus W11 is a highly-anticipated 40’ Weekender featuring the brand’s iconic sleek Scandinavian design and well-appointed, versatile decks. With exceptional handling, ample multifunctional seating, and the latest in boating technology, the W11 showcases all of Nimbus’ best-loved features in an elegant, thoughtfully designed package.
ECLIPSE
From iconic yacht builder Two Oceans Marine Manufacturing, the new 505 ECLIPSE is in production now, offering a new hull option and a stunning, entirely fresh interior. While water trials aren’t set to begin until 2024, this year’s FLIBS attendees will have the opportunity to get a sneak peek at the interior starboard salon mockup of the reimagined power yacht.
Two Oceans 555
Another exciting unveiling from Two Oceans Marine will be Hull #002 of their beloved 555 Power Catamaran, on display for the first time ever. Don’t miss the upgraded Off-Grid model, which offers a comprehensive off-grid system including lithium batteries and solar power to run the AC and other loads without any petrol.
Princess Yachts Y95 & F50
Reaching top speeds of up to 24 knots and sleeping up to 10 people, the Y95 is a stunning motor yacht delivering on both style and performance. Princess’ Y series flagship superyacht boasts superior spaciousness and first-class amenities, including a hot tub, full beam master stateroom, and a beach club area on the lower deck. Come see the Y95 as she makes her North American debut. We’ll also be showcasing the sophisticated and spacious Princess F50 flybridge, which we currently have in stock. With more than a thousand boats to take in, the 64th annual FLIBS will have something for everyone.
Miami International Boat Show, February 14 - 18, 2024
With more than a thousand brands on display, the world’s largest boat show will be held across six locations in Downtown Miami in 2024. The HMY team will be there in force. Keep an eye on our Miami International Boat Show 2024 page for updates.
Stuart Trawlerfest, March 2 - 4, 2024
Stuart, FL will host the 2024 Trawlerfest at the newly renovated Marriott Hutchinson Island Resort and Marina this coming February and HMY will again have a large presence. Dozens of new and used power cruisers will be on display, and a series of seminars will be held in the hotel’s conference center. More details are coming soon.
Palm Beach International Boat Show, March 21 - 24, 2024
The Palm Beach International Boat Show will be held in downtown West Palm Beach along Flagler Drive. Last year’s event featured more than 600 exhibiting brands and over 800 boats on display. The 2024 show also offers a VIP experience featuring a premium open bar and early admission. And, of course, HMY’s expert team will be front and center.
We hope to see you on the docks this October at FLIBS, but if you can’t make it, be sure to check out our other events through Boat Show Season and beyond. In the meantime, connect with us on Facebook or Instagram for even more content and updates.
