Here are 11 showstoppers you shouldn’t miss. Of course, the show is fundamentally about what floats your boat. Looking for a new supercar to go with your superyacht? The new “Car Exhibition at the Hall of Fame Marina” showcases the latest in exotic machinery. Unlike other shows, there is a vessel for every boater profile at FLIBS.Ĭhanges to this year’s show include an expanded Superyacht Village with more superyachts than ever, plus the addition of a new Designers’ Pavilion featuring many of the world’s top yacht design studios. The numbers of new yachts from Europe, Asia and South America also grow each year. Many yacht aficionados consider it the most enjoyable show on the international boat-show circuit, because of the sheer range of vessel types and owners-from twenty-something-foot fishing boats in the convention center to the massive 200-plus-foot superyachts at the Bahia Mar. Last year, more than 100,000 people visited the show, with about half coming from outside Florida. The total number of boats, marine products and services represent more than 1,000 brands from 52 countries.

It will have seven venues with more than 1,300 boats on display. The world’s largest in-water boating extravaganza, this year’s Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show-that’s FLIBS for short-opens its doors Wednesday, October 25 for a five-day run.
