A growing venue MIAMI BOAT SHOW AND SIMPLY SAIL
The show has expanded again, spreading north on Collins Avenue another
400 feet to add another 30 yachts from 52 to 134 feet. The show expanded a bit geographically and
added the Miami Beach Marina for very large yachts. The Miami Beach Marina will host eight
superyachts over 50 meters (164 feet) with brokerage firms that include Worth
Avenue Yachts, Camper & Nicholsons, HMY, Northrop & Johnson, Merle Wood
& Associates, Fraser Yachts and Burgess Yachts.
Sea Ray will display yachts
between 42 and 65 feet. Tiara is also bringing its fleet to the show, with
eight yachts from 36 to 60 feet. VanDutch Marine Ltd., which is
now being built by Marquis Yachts, is another new addition, bringing three
boats from 31 to 54 feet.
It will host at least 70 yachts over 100 feet, and that number was still
growing in early January. (As a comparison, the Monaco Yacht Show has 90 yachts
over 100 feet.) At the time, the largest boats in the show were a 164-foot
Christensen and a 143-foot Benetti. Other yachts include a 123-foot Sanlorenzo,
a 111-foot Sunseeker and a 110-foot Mangusta. “The lineup of boats is
phenomenal,”.
Ferretti’s new-boat display will include 22 or 23 boats — two less than
last year — but only because there are some bigger boats in the mix, Henderson
says. There will be two Custom Line boats, a Custom Line 100 and a Navetta 26.
The company will debut the Ferretti 750 among its lineup of six other
Ferrettis, six Rivas and three Bertrams in “a prime location.”
Four Marquis yachts will be at the builder’s in-water display on Collins
Avenue. They are the 420 Sport Bridge, 500 Sport Bridge, 630 Sport Yacht and
720 Flybridge Motor Yacht.
