Everything you need to know about boot Düsseldorf 2024

The anticipation is building as the world's largest yachts and water sports show, boot Düsseldorf , is set to make a triumphant return on 20-28 January 2024 at Messe Düsseldorf in Germany. Celebrating its 55th edition, the event is poised to surpass its pre-pandemic success, with a spectacular showcase of yachts, cutting-edge technology and the latest trends in the marine world.

In 2023, boot Düsseldorf attracted almost 237,000 visitors from over 60 countries. This international appeal is mirrored in the participation of more than 1,500 exhibitors from 68 nations, converging on a vast 220,000 square metres across 16 exhibition halls. The diversity and scale of the event make it a must-attend for anyone passionate about yachting and water sports.

Powerboat pleasure

Hall 1 will play host to an impressive array of medium-sized powerboats from renowned brands like Bavaria, Bénéteau, Delphia, Elling, Linssen and Sealine. Excitingly, Brazilian manufacturer Schaefer will make its debut appearance, adding a new dimension to the powerboat showcase.

Superyacht luxury

Hall 6 will transform into a haven for luxury yachts, with vessels up to approximately 33 metres resembling floating villas. Attendees can expect to be captivated by brands like Absolute, Azimut, Bluegame, Cranchi, Fairline, Ferretti, Explorer, Pearl, Princess, Sirena, Sunseeker and Wally.

All things sailing

Halls 15 and 16 are dedicated to sailing, featuring manufacturers like Hanse Yachts, X Yachts, Bavaria, Bénéteau, Bente, Contest, Dufour, Elan, Grand Soleil, Gunboat, Hallberg Rassy, Jeanneau, Nautor Swan, Oyster, Saffier and Solaris. A new addition, the Multihull Village, introduces visitors to the world of comfortable multi-hull sailing and power catamarans.

Tenders and RIBs

Hall 3 will be the hub for tenders and outboards, featuring leading brands such as Bayliner, Boston Whaler, Honda, Karnic Powerboats, Mercury, Quicksilver, Sea Ray, Suzuki, Tohatsu and Yamaha. The new Sportfisher Center in the same hall promises to provide valuable insights into the world of fishing on the water. Hall 9, on the other hand, will be a paradise for RIB enthusiasts with a lineup of international manufacturers, including 3D Tender, Henshaw Inflatables, Italboats, Lomac, Nautica, Northstar, Pischel, Bootsbau, Tiger Marine, Wassersport-Center Stockmann, Whaly Boats, Williams Jet Tenders, and Z-Nautic Group’s Zodiac and Bombard.

Technical and environmental initiatives

Halls 10 and 11 will host the latest in engine technology, electrical systems, freshwater and black-water systems, heating and air-conditioning, boat building supplies, maintenance, security and deck equipment. The show will welcome a range of international technology suppliers and engine manufacturers, including Yanmar, Volvo Penta, Huracan Marine, Torqeedo, Kräutler, Dometic and Drinkwaard. The 'blue innovation dock' in Hall 10 will focus on sustainability in watersports, serving as a key networking platform for industry stakeholders.

Watersports adventure

Halls 14 and 17 cater to watersport enthusiasts, offering everything from superyacht water toys, kite surfing, foiling, SUPing and canoeing. There is even the opportunity to do a canoe tour on an indoor river against the backdrop of the Canadian wilderness. This area offers the perfect place to relax after strolling around the show.

Destination inspiration

Hall 13 invites visitors to explore tourist centres from Egypt, Croatia, Mallorca, the Bay of Lübeck and Turkey. This hall serves as a unique travel marketplace, with numerous tour operators, charter brokers, marinas and regional tourism experts offering inspiration for holiday or superyacht itineraries.

Lifestyle and leisure

Hall 11 is a shopper's paradise, offering not only technical accessories but also a range of stylish yachtwear and lifestyle products. The Water Pixel World returns with tips for underwater photography and filming, along with state-of-the-art equipment, and this area also houses the show’s impressive array of diving equipment.

“We have had very successful talks with the manufacturers over the summer months and feel great enthusiasm and anticipation for boot 2024,” says Wolfram Diener, president and CEO of Messe Düsseldorf. “In January, we will also be able to welcome back brands that took a break this year. In particular, we see very high international attendance from exhibitors. This means boot 2024 will reach the highest level, present wide and varied ranges for both water sports and destinations and will again position itself as the world-leading show for this industry.”

Boot Düsseldorf 2023: Top new yachts making their debut

• Toby Hodges
• January 17, 2023

There will be a plethora of new yacht launches at Boot Düsseldorf 2023, here's our pick of some of the most exciting launches due to be unveiled at the show

One of the worlds most exciting boat shows comes round every January and often features a host of new yacht launches ready for the year ahead. Boot Düsseldorf this year once again looks set to have a whole host of new yacht launches. Some of these models are making their show debuts, and some are being unveiled for the first time.

If motorboats are more your thing, check out this preview from our sister title Motorboat and Yachting on the best new motor yachts at Boot Dusseldorf 2023 .

Best new boats of Boot Düsseldorf 2023

Jeanneau yachts 55.

Here’s a novel design we’re eager to view. Following the recently launched Jeanneau Yachts 60 and 65, and yet offering something totally different, the Jeanneau Yachts 55 features a highly innovative layout, which focuses on the privacy of the owner.

We all like our own space sometimes, another reason behind the popularity of multihulls. Never afraid to try new things, Jeanneau has created a full apartment for the owner – by providing separate companionways giving direct access to the aft guest cabins, everything from the main companionway forward can be used for the owner’s space.

The split cockpit is also unusual. The forward end is for sail handling, under the protection of a fixed arch and sprayhood or fixed windscreen, while the entire aft section is dedicated to sun lounging space.

Contest 49CS & 50CS

A joint world premiere of two brand new yachts, the sisterships of the same hull in different formats, will be quite the statement from the Dutch yard Contest Yachts. Where the 49CS is a natural step up from the 42CS (see full report page 58), the 50CS takes its centre cockpit cues from the 55CS, with a more conventional centre cockpit layout with aft master suite.

It’s highly unusual to have such different options on the same hull, particularly on yachts designed for bluewater cruising. Both versions still offer three cabins, two heads, plus the option of electric propulsion.

Nordship 420DS

When you have a niche in which you’re top of the game, there’s little need to shake things up too often. Yet after years of relying on its staple models, Danish deck saloon specialists Nordship had a busy 2022, launching two new designs, a 500DS Custom and this 420DS. We were due to sail the 500DS Custom for European Yacht of the Year trials, but a problem with the mainsail furler unfortunately meant it missed that window. But we’re itching to see the 420DS, which will make its debut at Düsseldorf, and is a size that sits at the heart of what this yard does best.

Lars Buchwald has given the coachroof windows more of a modern wraparound look, but otherwise expect signature features including panoramic views from the deck saloon, a sumptuous aft cabin and top quality mahogany joinerwork.

Saffier SE 24 Lite

They just keep getting better! First comes fun, planing performance whether solo or crewed, but then comes so much more from these Dutch daysailer specialists. Saffier’s brand new SE 24 Lite is a lightweight (1,200kg), stable (450kg in the keel), sporty design, which should prove simple to sail alone or with family or friends thanks to the large, uncluttered and well organised cockpit.

It’s trailable, can be hoisted by a single point and is simple and quick to rig. And it’s current: there is enough integrated solar panel capacity designed in to charge the 3.5kW Torqeedo battery for the electric drive (estimated to be 70% lighter than diesel propulsion). The instrument displays can be removed to recharge at home or in the car, and if you fancy staying aboard overnight, there are two berths below decks.

Builder: saffieryachts.com

Elan Impression 43

Elan’s impression range has long been popular for Med cruising and charters, as they are voluminous yet fun and easy to sail. And while the Slovenian yard has brought out some cracking new designs recently, such as the GT6 in 2020 and the E6 last year, its Impression range of cruisers has needed something fresh. Long standing Elan designer Rob Humphreys has drawn a good looking hull shape for this new deck saloon, which sports twin rudders and a 1.95m L-shape keel as standard. And after its success with the E6, Pininfarina was commissioned for the styling. The spacious rustic oak interior is offered with three or four cabins with two heads.

Elan was an early leader in the use of vacuum-infusion and has employed its Vacuum Assisted Infusion Lamination (VAIL) technology on the hull, deck and stringers for a stiff hull and consistent finish. An optional bowsprit extends LOA from 43ft 8in to 44ft 7in.

Builder: elan-yachts.com

As it was designed to replace Dufour’s exceedingly popular 360, this new model was given the 37 badge, but is in fact 4ft shorter on deck. Not that you know that once on board – thanks to modern hull design, the voluminous bow and wide stern provides ample space on and below deck.

It’s also really fun to sail. Available with three different winch and deck setups, badged Easy, Ocean and Performance, this is a European Yacht of the Year 2023 nominee in the Family Cruiser category – see our issue next month for the winners and more on the nominees.

Builder: dufour-yachts.com

A spicy all-carbon cruiser racer from the board of in-demand Shaun Carkeek, this will make for a real draw at the show. For full details see our issue last month, January 2022.

Builder: neoyachts.com

Great to see the La Rochelle plywood epoxy specialists back with a new model, a Lombard-designed flagship at that. Again, see last month’s issue for full details.

The 10 Most Exciting Yachts Debuting at Boot Düsseldorf This Year

From 110 mph speedboats to electric cruisers to transatlantic sailers, the world's largest indoor show has a vessel for every boating style., howard walker, howard walker's most recent stories.

Celebrating its 55th anniversary this year, the hugely popular “Boot” officially kicks off the 2024 international boat show season. More than 1,500 exhibitors from over 60 countries will fill the 16 halls at the Düsseldorf “messe” exhibition center on the banks of the Rhine river.

As much a nautical lifestyle event as a boat show, there are halls dedicated to everything from underwater photography to exploring far-flung cruising destinations. Two full buildings cater just to watersport enthusiasts—there’s even an artificial river for trying out the latest canoes and kayaks.

But the launches from global boat builders remain the show’s main draw. Though the new boats are smaller than launches at in-water shows in Cannes, Monaco, and Fort Lauderdale, there is no shortage of innovation and modern design.

Here are 10 newcomers that bode well for boating in 2024.

German builder Mayla is using Düsseldorf to unveil its brand-new, 44-foot Mayla GT. The angular vessel pays homage to those Miami Vice-style go-fast boats of the ’80s but with a futuristic topside. Powered by twin 650 hp Corvette gas V8s supplied by Ilmor Marine, with optional V8s up to 1,500 hp, this needle-nosed, all-carbon-fiber rocket ship is designed to hit a top speed of 110 mph. The slingshot performance is due to its low weight of 4.5 tons and the deep-V hull design that incorporates transverse deflectors from Sweden’s Petestep. The end result is a go-fast boat that would make even Sonny Crockett hold on for dear life. 

wallypower50

Choices, choices. That seems to be the thinking at Ferretti-owned Wally Yachts these days. Want something a little bigger and less dayboat-like than a wallytender48, but not as voluminous as a wallypower58? How about the latest wallypower50 making its debut at Boot 2024? Wally gave a sneak peak of this new 50-foot weekender at last year’s Cannes boat show but will unveil the production version at Düsseldorf. Or make that versions with an “s,” since the 50 will be offered with either twin Volvo IPS650s inboard diesels (for a 41.4-knot top speed), or quad 400 hp Mercury V10 outboards for a 55.2 mph max. Not fast enough? There’s also the option of four Mercury 500 Racing outboards for 60-plus mph velocities.

Invictus TT420 Outboard

A year ago, bespoke Italian builder Invictus Yachts used Boot to unwrap its bold, new, ax-bowed 42-foot day cruiser, the TT420. It came with twin Volvo Penta D6 diesels packing 440 hp apiece and delivering a sporty 41 mph top speed. Invictus is heading back to Boot this month to unveil a 1,000 hp outboard version called the TT420S with power from a trio of 350 hp Yamaha 350s. While the new 420S gives up a chunk of its swim platform at the stern to accommodate the three Yamahas, it gains a huge storage lazarette that was previously home to the Volvo inboards. In fact, there’s space to swallow a seven-foot RIB tender, plus a small armada of water toys. The rest of the Christian Grande–designed fast cruiser, with its trademark wave-shaped hardtop, keeps the same visual drama.

Fairline Targa 40

Britain’s Fairline Yachts is using Boot Düsseldorf to pull the wraps off a new addition to its Targa sports cruiser range. The all-new Targa 40 is the spiritual successor to the builder’s iconic Targa 38—over 300 boats were built between 2006 and 2016—and will slip into Fairline’s Targa range beneath its 45- and 50-foot models. Fairline’s lead designer Christian Gott has done a stellar job of making this new bluff-bowed 40 feel almost as roomy as its bigger brother. Key new features include a fold-down cockpit balcony, an integrated tender garage, and an oversize master cabin in the bow with 6’6” of headroom. The Volvo D6 340 diesels are standard power, producing a top end of 36.8 mph, while the larger 380s should deliver a max speed of 41.4 mph.

Saxdor 400 GTC

Open or closed: Take your pick. Back at September’s Cannes boat show, Finland’s Saxdor Yachts unveiled its innovative, new 40-foot 400 GTO flagship. One of many unusual features included a stretched hardtop with the cockpit that opens to the elements on three sides. Now at Boot 2024, the builder is following up with a 400 GTC version that comes with an enclosed, hence more family-friendly, pilothouse for all-weather cruising. Saxdor is waiting until the show to reveal how the expansive glass side panels open to allow access to the 400’s twin, fold-down bulwarks. But we expect some kind of top-hinged arrangement with hydraulic struts supporting the glass. As with the GTO, power comes from a pair of 300, 350, or 400 hp Mercury V10s.

Omikron OT-60

It may look like a sleek, modern sailboat with its mast and rigging lopped off, but this innovative new 60-footer from Greek builder Omikron might just be the future of fuel-sipping trawler-style cruising. Penned by Milan-based sailboat designer Lorenzo Argento, the new OT-60 is being shown at Boot following a “soft” preview in Venice last summer. Described by Omikron as a motoryacht that “feels like a sailboat,” the focus here is on smooth, quiet, economical, island-hopping-style cruising. Powered by a pair of 150 hp Yanmar diesels (250s are also available), the yacht will cruise at 9.2 mph for over 1,000 nautical miles on a single tank, burning just over a .33 gallons per mile. Below decks, the OT-60’s 20-foot beam means cavernous accommodations, while its two foot, eight inch draft will take it into the shallowest of anchorages.

Steeler 50S Trans-Atlantic

Dutch builder Steeler Yachts is using Boot 2024 to unveil its brand-new 50-foot 50S TA, with the TA part standing for Trans-Atlantic. As the name suggests, this rugged steel and aluminum long-distance cruiser has been designed for an adventurous German couple to make the 2,100-nautical mile run from the Cape Verde Islands all the way to Barbados in the Caribbean. The yacht has a 1,320-gallon fuel capacity, plus a Wingit-Kite system on the foredeck that uses wind assistance to help drag the Steeler along. Interestingly, the couple has opted not to use fuel-sipping, low-horsepower engines in favor of a pair of 600 hp Volvo D8 turbodiesels. To counter any gnarly Atlantic swells, the 50S comes with Magnus retractable rotor stabilizers.

Moody Decksaloon 48

British sailboat builder Moody Yachts—part of the burgeoning German Hanse Group—is introducing a new word into the boat-building lexicon with the debut of its brand-new Decksaloon 48: Monomaran. It’s when you incorporate the interior space and volume of a twin-hulled catamaran into a single monohull. Of course, it’s a slight exaggeration considering the new 48’s beam is just 15 feet, 11 inches, while a similar-sized cat’s width would typically be twice that. More likely Moody is using the term to describe the way the 48’s rear cockpit, galley, and salon are on one level, unlike most monohull sailboats. Penned by British yacht designer Bill Dixon, this striking newcomer is distinguished by its towering, big-windowed pilothouse and deep, protected cockpit beneath the oversize hardtop. With over 1,400 square feet of sail, wing keel, and twin helms, its sailing performance should be as exciting as its looks.

Galvani Ventisei-e

The latest in the rapidly expanding list of whisper-quiet, zero-emission electric day boat offerings will make its global debut from Holland’s Galvani Boats. At Boot ’24, the fledgling builder will unveil its all-new, all-electric Ventisei, which is Italian for 26, reflecting the boat’s length. Modeled after Holland’s iconic “sloepen” open dayboats, the Galvani will be offered in two versions: the Ventisei-e with a 10kW electric motor juiced by a 30kWh battery, giving up to 15 hours of slow-speed cruising. Or the Ventisei-eHS (High Speed) with a 100kW motor, 64kWh battery pack for a 23 mph top speed. Dutch designer Bernd Weel penned the boat’s classic lines, while Bellmarine, also Dutch-based, created the electric power train. The first production boats are due this summer.

Windy 29 Hurácan

Norway’s Windy Boats is going back to the future with its retro-style, go-fast 29 Hurácan. You can only imagine the fun that Norwegian superyacht designer Espen Øino had in creating the shape of this classic-style open weekender—his typical day job is shaping massive German megayachts. The design of this low-slung, built-in-Poland, 29-footer is all sharp angles, prominent hull chines, flat foredeck and classic three-piece windshield. The only nod to modernity is the more upright section that Øino added to the bow. The simple cockpit arrangement sees twin helm seats, an L-shaped sofa, and a sun pad on the stern. Power comes from a wide choice of Volvo or Yanmar diesels, or even an old-school Volvo 430 hp gas V-8 sterndrive.

Boot Düsseldorf 2024: 12 of the most exciting new boats to track down

• Top stories

Boot Düsseldorf returns next week with an array of new boat launches. Here’s our pick of the best models to track down at Europe’s biggest boat show…

If you genuinely want to compare a lot of boats back-to-back then no other show makes it more convenient than Boot Düsseldorf. It’s one of the biggest indoor boat shows in the world (if not  the  biggest) and it has everything from kayaks to superyachts.

The nine-day exhibition is expected to be busier than ever this year, with almost 4,000 exhibitors already confirmed to show their wares at the Messe Düsseldorf showground.

There is far too much to see in one day, we’d recommend spending at least two days there (with a mandatory night out in between to enjoy the delights of the altstadt).

So without further ado, here are our top motorboat picks from the Boot Düsseldorf 2024 line-up:

Brig Navigator 24

Launched at the  2023 Southampton Boat Show , the Brig Navigator 24 is part of a wider overhaul of the brand’s Navigator range, and as such it will be joined by an all-new Brig Navigator 22 at the  Dusseldorf show .

These are the first new models to emerge from Brig’s Kharkiv facility since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine in February 2022.

As the name suggests, the Brig Navigator 24 is 24ft long and features a  centre console  layout powered by either single or twin  outboard engines  up to a maximum of 250hp.

Replacing the outgoing Navigator 730, this versatile RIB is equally comfortable performing fishing,  watersports  or family cruising duties, with all the features and storage options you’d expect for each.

Dromeas 33 suv.

Since Olympic sailor, Efe Kuyumcu, founded Dromeas Yachts in 2017, his mission has been to build the toughest and most versatile high-performance offshore leisure boats in the world – and the new 33 SUV represents the next step in that campaign.

Built using vacuum-infusion, epoxy resins and carbon fibre reinforcements, this larger of the two wheelhouse models takes the same twin-stepped deep vee Adam Younger hull as the Walkaround variant but adds an enclosed pilothouse with twin side doors for year-round practicality.

Available with inboards or outboards, this 50-knot offshore platform also uses aggressive spray rails, thickset rubbing strakes and elevated forward gunwales for a safe, dry ride.

Given Dromeas’s model protocol, it’s reasonable to expect an SUV variant of the flagship 38 CC to land at some point in the future but for now, this easily customised and inherently flexible four-season platform looks like the standout boat in the fleet.

Fairline Targa 40

Fairline’s Targa 40 is a much more substantial boat than the previous best-selling Targa 38 – not just 3ft 6in longer but also 20% more voluminous, thanks to taller topsides and a wider beam that extends further towards an upright bow.

It looks like the extra space has been put to good use too. Fairline’s lead designer, Christian Gott, who will be in attendance on the Düsseldorf show stand, has created a versatile new cockpit layout and a lower deck with 6ft 6in of headroom, while maintaining (and arguably even upgrading) the sporty looks that were such a major part of the T38’s appeal.

While this sleek hardtop sportscruiser shares several features with the smaller F//Line 33 and the new Fairline Phantom 65, it also delivers a fair few tricks of its own.

Nerea NY24 Limo

Launched in Genoa and making its second public appearance in Düsseldorf, the new NY24 Limo from Italian yard, Nerea, takes the underpinnings of the NY24 Deluxe and GT models and strips away the covered foredeck to ramp up the open-air seating.

What you get in here is a big wraparound cockpit with easy three-tier boarding points at the transom and on both sides, as well as a bow dinette that can be converted into a sunbed to supplement the lounge seats aft.

It’s not as versatile as the weekender-style models but if you need a compact and manageable tender that looks a million dollars, make sure you check it out.

Omikron OT60

Omikron’s debut production model is apparently built for Mediterranean island hopping at “a peaceful pace with abundant space”. To that end, it uses an Eco-Cruise hull by Juan Kouyoumdjian, alongside carbon fibre in the construction of the superstructure for uprated stability at sea.

Equipped with a pair of Yanmar 4LV diesels, Omikron is quoting a fuel flow of just 1.25 litres per nautical mile for a very useful cruising range in the region of 750 miles, and there’s plenty of space on offer here too.

The internal saloon opens out into the cockpit, thanks to an array of doors and windows that virtually eradicates the aft bulkhead, and the cockpit features a pair of symmetrical L-shaped sofas with big views across an open transom.

Quarken 35 Cabin

Finnish yard, Quarken, is gearing up to launch its largest model yet. Known as the Quarken 35 Cabin, this Category B model looks likely to pick up where the Quarken 27 Cabin left off.

Like its smaller sibling, it features a near-plumb bow and an asymmetric wheelhouse to maximise internal space, while still leaving room for a deeper, wider side deck to starboard.

A forward-raked windscreen with slender mullions and plunging windows all-round should deliver good visibility from the helm, as well as plenty of natural light. A large overhead sunroof should help open things up even further and the provision of both an aft door and a sliding skipper’s door should make movement pretty easy too.

Equipped to carry ten people and sleep three, the established Quarken formula suggests that the new 35 Cabin will be joined by Open and T-top versions in the near future. But even as a standalone boat, it’s clear that this high-value weekender is going to be a strong contender.

Saxdor 400 GTC

Saxdor’s new 400 GTC is ostensibly a Saxador 400 GTO with less in the way of openness and more in the way of pilothouse protection.

Like the GTO variant, the wheelhouse encompasses the full-beam of the boat, maximising internal living space while providing easy movement fore and aft via a generous offset door in the windscreen. But unlike that boat, the GTC model replaces open space and canvas curtains with permanent glazing on both sides.

Direct access to the long fold-down side terraces is still perfectly achievable though, thanks to big sliding side doors, and the configurable aft deck can also join the party courtesy of the same aft door and hinged window as the GTO variant.

You get the luxury of an offset forward cabin and a separate bathroom, each with standing headroom of more than 6ft, plus the option of an additional double cabin beneath the cockpit further aft.

SAY Carbon 52

Performance brand SAY Carbon Yachts is launching its largest boat yet – a 52ft stunner with the performance to match its high-tech looks…

Weighing in at just 7.5 tonnes, thanks to an all-carbon-fibre hull and deck (around half the weight of a typical 50ft GRP craft), the SAY Carbon 52 will be powered by a relatively modest pair of petrol or diesel engines for a top speed of around 45 knots.

A hybrid electric waterjet drive is also an option, giving near silent displacement cruising at speeds of up to 8 knots. As well as its lightweight construction, the SAY Carbon 52 features a Petestep hull, which impressed us so much during our recent test drive of the X-Power 33.

This patented design uses specially shaped spray rails that fan out from the centreline, deflecting spray back under the hull and creating a high-pressure zone at the stern that is said to deliver a faster, smoother ride as well as increased fuel efficiency.

It will be powered by a pair of 430hp Volvo V8 petrol engines on sterndrives as standard, but 440hp D6 diesels are also on offer.

Sunseeker Ocean 182

This is the first chance for European showgoers to see the new tri-deck version of the original Ocean 90.

It’s called the 182 to reflect its gross tonnage rather than its length and foreground the fact that the wide-beam design and newly enclosed top deck deliver more than 2,000ft2 of interior space.

The standard arrangement is equally interesting. A stylish internal staircase leads to an upper deck, where a fully-covered forward area enables the helm to move upstairs, freeing up space on the main deck.

The upper deck’s central zone can be left open or specced as an enclosed sky lounge but in all cases, the lower helm’s absence creates room on the main deck for a bright dining area and galley forward, which in turn frees up the space further aft for a larger saloon.

The upper structure does reduce outdoor space, of course, but with a vast 24m2 split-level beach club, alongside four big cabins, 27-knot performance and a cruising range of 1,100 miles, it’s a tempting package.

Sunseeker Predator 75

This largest of Sunseeker’s “next generation” Predators looks superb, thanks to a Midnight Grey hull with jet-black detailing and a potent coupé-style silhouette. However, this boat is designed as much for parties as for performance and the deck layouts reflect that.

The cockpit provides a carbon- fibre table for up to six people, within easy reach of an electric barbecue, 80-litre fridge and icemaker.

There’s also an electric canopy back here, as well as dimmable lighting – and the foredeck also provides seating and a sunpad, plus zoned Sonos music and a pair of large drawer fridges.

In the standard layout, the lower deck features a forward VIP, a starboard double and a full-beam owner’s mid-cabin, plus a port galley with integrated Miele appliances, a wine cooler and a Quooker tap.

There’s also a neat breakfast bar and seating area in here – and at the aft end, there’s room for a two-berth crew cabin to port and a tender garage to starboard.

WallyPower 50

If you’re torn between the open-style thrills of the WallyTender line and the luxury of the WallyPower line, the WallyPower50 might be the most attractive model yet.

It certainly possesses the angular lines, fine stem and aggressive double-chine profile you would expect of a classic WallyPower model but you can also spec it with the same workmanlike wraparound fender as a WallyTender.

Like the  WallyTender 48  and the  WallyPower 58 , the new WallyPower 50 is available with either inboard or  outboard  propulsion. The standard model is fitted with twin Volvo Penta IPS-650 pod drives and user-friendly joystick control for berthing manoeuvres.

Windy 29 Huracán

Slotting neatly between the Windy 27 Solano and the Windy 32 Grand Zonda, the new Windy Huracán 29 is likely to be a major Düsseldorf attraction.

Designed by Espen Øino, with interiors in collaboration with Fareham-based Design Unlimited, it ticks all the classical Windy boxes with a step-free deep-vee hull, a choice of petrol or diesel inboard engines, a deep, wide cockpit and an aggressively raked foredeck.

The deck layout is also classical Windy. Encompassing the full beam, thanks to a step-through screen, the cockpit adopts an asymmetrical arrangement with a pair of helm seats backing onto a starboard dinette with a facing corner seat to port. Behind that, a sunpad adjoins the aft end of the dinette, with a sliding backrest for extra flexibility.

It’s a fine looking boat too, and production has reportedly already been pre-sold up to 2025.

Keep checking back with mby.com during the Boot Düsseldorf show as we will be sharing yacht tour videos of as many of the above debuts as possible.

Featured Yachts To See At The Dusseldorf Boat Show 2024

The Dusseldorf Boat Show (more accurately called boot Düsseldorf) is the first major boat show of the year in the yachting industry and the largest in the world. Here are some incredible statistics about the show with comparison to the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show.

• 237,000 visitors (100,000 at FLIBS)
• 1,500 exhibitors (1,000 at FLIBS)
• 721,000 square feet of exhibition space (FLIBS is actually more spread out - 3 million square feet!)

Because it's the closest major show for many of the major European motor yacht builders, it's often the first show where new models make their premiere to the public and to the boating media. This adds a level of excitement for visitors and dealers who make the trip from the U.S. to Düsseldorf, Germany. SI Yachts will have several of our premium shipyard partners in attendance including:

• Princess Yachts
• Absolute Yachts
• Prestige Yachts
• Pardo Yachts

Below is a map of where each of these manufacturers will be. Princess, Absolute, and Prestige will all be in Hall 6, while Pardo will be in Hall 5.

BOAT SHOW LINE-UP: PRINCESS YACHTS

The Princess Yachts shipyard is always at the forefront of technology and the team produces a high number of model variations at an extremely high level of quality control. There are now 5 model ranges from the British manufacturer, including several award-winners. The Princess Düsseldorf display will be one you don't want to miss.

(Featured Below: Princess X80)

Similar to the larger X95 Super Flybridge, the Princess X80 has unique lines for a Princess as the upper and main decks stretch the length of the yacht. The "Super Flybridge" name is well-deserved as it features three separate socializing areas on the X-80: a forward flybridge seating area, an enclosed, climate-controlled bridge, and the aft flybridge lounge area. This change comes as more yacht owners have asked for more entertainment space on the flybridge since this is where the best views are and where guests tend to want to spend their time.

Other Princess models on display at Düsseldorf:

• Princess X95
• Princess Y85
• Princess S72
• Princess F65
• Princess V55
• Princess V50

BOAT SHOW LINE-UP: PRESTIGE YACHTS

Prestige Yachts says that their boats put you "in ultimate harmony with the sea" and we tend to agree. From plush interiors, to creatively designed exterior areas for sunbathing and entertaining, Prestige knows what today's yacht owners desire. The new F-line, a re-imagined line-up for the Prestige Flybridge range, will make its debut at the show.

(Featured Below: Prestige F4)

The Prestige F4 has maximized each outdoor area for socializing, sunbathing, and conversing with friends. Beginning aft, the Iro-deck bathing platform creates a wonderful launch point for snorkeling and cannon balls. It's wide enough for sunbathing at the water's edge, features a hot/cold shower, and a stainless steel ladder for easy boarding. Moving up to the cockpit, Prestige has made a simple, yet impactful change, by facing two sofas port and starboard instead of fore and aft, with the table in between. This allows everyone enjoying an al fresco lunch to have more of a water view instead of facing the doors to the salon.

Other Prestige models on display at Düsseldorf:

• Prestige M48 Power Catamaran
• Prestige 690 FLY

BOAT SHOW LINE-UP: ABSOLUTE YACHTS

The Italian shipyard Absolute Yachts has carved their own space in the crowded luxury cruising yacht market by creating dynamic models that are stunningly beautiful, efficient in performance, and have the comfort that owners require for multi-night vacations on the water. All 3 model ranges will be on display at the show including the new Coupe' line, the popular Navetta line, and the Absolute Fly's.

(Featured Below: Absolute 52 FLY)

Absolute has re-imagined the 52 FLY , a popular model in their range since it first debuted in 2013. Many changes and improvements have been integrated into the new model and it is said to be a culmination of all of the popular innovations Absolute has developed over the last few years. Appropriately nicknamed "The Absolute Direction", the 52 FLY certainly gives a clear indication of the direction the award-winning shipyard is headed.

Other Absolute models on display at Düsseldorf:

BOAT SHOW LINE-UP: PARDO YACHTS

The tradition of quality and hand-crafted perfection inside the Cantiere del Pardo shipyard is the reason behind the success of Pardo Yachts. Each model line, from the comfortable walk-around day yachts, to the luxury long-distance cruising Endurance Series, is characterized by elegance and customization. Every Pardo is unmistakable in appearance; iconic lines, relaxed, wide spaces, and a harmonious joining with the interior.

(Featured Below: Pardo GT52)

The Pardo Yachts GT52 is positioned between the walk-around range and the Endurance range. Meant to attract the owners that wish to have the performance of the Endurance line, but with more space and volume than the current walk-around models offer. Many of the features found on the Pardo Endurance 60 are found on the GT52 including the stern side-windows which raise up, aft cockpit doors that open completely, and a sunroof that partly opens the interior.

Other Pardo models on display at Düsseldorf:

• Pardo 43 Walk-Around
• Pardo 38 Walk-Around

12 new sailboats to discover at boot Dusseldorf 2024

The boot Dusseldorf 2024 (January 20-28) is approaching and promises once again to be full of innovations. While waiting to discover them in person, we present to you ten models that you can see for the first time exhibited at what is confirmed as one of the most important boat shows in the world.

Hallberg-Rassy 69 

At boot Düsseldorf, we will finally be able to touch the new Hallberg-Rassy 69 , the largest yacht ever built by the shipyard. This 69-footer, naturally designed by Germán Frers, is intended to be family-operated, using electric winches, but there is also space on board for a sailor or skipper if desired. The interior is on a single level throughout the boat, with a 3.5-meter cockpit protected by a tempered glass windshield and high bulwarks running all around. There is, of course, a spacious engine room, easily accessible for intervention even while sailing. Official website .

Contest 63CS 

Designed for high performance in all weather conditions, the new Contest 63CS stands out for balanced lines drawn by naval architects judel/vrolijk & co. and an interior style signed by Wetzels Brown Partners. Lloyd’s Register’s full certification guarantees Contest’s high standards. Unique in its category, it offers two identical VIP suites in front of the salon, ideal for families and friends. Smart solutions and electric maneuvers make it suitable for reduced crews despite its size. Official website .

Wauquiez 55

With the Wauquiez 55 , the famous French shipyard known for Pilot Saloon challenges tradition and presents a boat with bold and modern design. The challenge is to combine the efficiency of a racing boat with the comfort of a deck saloon. A yacht with dual identity characterized by a distinctive design (with “arch” edges running along the sides, a reverse bow, and an integrated long bowsprit that extends the overall length to 17.50 m) and, above all, equipped to be a perfect blue-water vessel for long voyages. The interiors, curated by Stéphane Roséo, blend elegance and practicality, with spacious cabins and quality finishes. At boot Dusseldorf, a virtual tour will be available, awaiting the official debut. Official website .

Arcona 50 

The new flagship of the Swedish shipyard is a long-range cruising boat. The aesthetics refer to the world of performance cruisers (with the “touch” of Jeppesen, founder of X-Yachts), with generous but balanced volumes, nearly inverse bow exits, and appealing to those who love sporty boats. In contrast to many pure cruisers, it has no edges on the hull; instead, the stern exits are soft, with a slight knee that nods more to the world of sporty boats. Official website .

The Moody DS48 project is by Bill Dixon, who conceived a boat that the shipyard itself defines as a “monomaran,” i.e., a monohull with some characteristics typical of cruising catamarans. With a panoramic deckhouse, the covered aft cockpit is connected to the internal dinette on a single level, and a forward cockpit in front of the mast, complete with a table and seating, typical of catamarans. The interiors are available optionally up to three cabins, each with separate shower bathrooms. Official website .

Bavaria C46

A new entry in Bavaria’s C-Line , for the first time on display at boot Dusseldorf, the series of high-performance cruising boats designed by the Italian studio Cossutti Yacht Design. A boat with a “classic” V-shaped hull starting from the bow, slim along the waterline, widening as it reaches the deck, ensuring more forward volume. The edge is very pronounced towards the stern, and the maximum beam is pushed back: another solution to increase space in the cabins, habitability, and brightness. Official website .

Dufour 44 

The design recalls the “family feeling” of the Dufour 41, also designed by the Italian studio Felci Yachts. Characterized by a sleek hull with large windows along the sides, lightening the weights and increasing the interior brightness. At the bow, there is a bowsprit that houses the anchor (with vertical prows, it is now a mandatory solution). Double steering wheel but a single blade, with the aim of reducing hydrodynamic resistance and favoring sensitivity. The interiors of the Dufour 44, designed by Ardizio Design, offer bright spaces, with options for “front” or “side” kitchens and various cabin configurations. Official website .

Elan Impression 43

The search for harmony between design, performance, and comfort guided the new Elan Impression 43 , designed by Rob Humphreys and Pininfarina. This 13-meter boat , ideal for charter and family cruises, is made using the 3D VAIL technique (Vacuum Assisted Infusion Lamination), ensuring greater strength and lightness of the structure. The hull features a sharp edge that increases the section and volume of the boat, improving performance and stability. The twin-wheel system with twin blades in the water ensures maneuverability and greater wheel sensitivity. The bright and spacious interiors feature a complete kitchen, C-shaped dinette, and comfortable bathrooms. Official website .

Hanse 410 

Hanse will be present at the Düsseldorf Boat Show with three new models, two of which (one under 40 feet and one over 50 feet) are still under embargo. The new Hanse 410 , which we have already had the opportunity to board at the Genoa Boat Show, will also be exhibited in Düsseldorf. A boat designed by the French studio Berret-Racoupeau, it stands out for the reverse bow, integrated bowsprit, and a hull with promising shapes for optimal performance. The edges continue from bow to stern, improving stability and maximizing internal volumes. The windows change compared to the replaced 418, they will still be three, but with the central one much more extended and streamlined. In the “old style,” instead, the configuration of the deckhouse and the bulwarks that run aft. Less engine, less consumption, with the option of electric propulsion for zero-emission sailing. Official website .

Beneteau Oceanis 37.1 

Marc Lombard has taken care of the waterlines, Nauta Design covers, and interiors, available in various layouts. A boat in continuity, in philosophy and aesthetics, with the rest of the latest Oceanis range. Offered in a version with a standard sail plan that includes a classic or furling mainsail and self-tacking jib, with twin rudders and an L-shaped keel. For those who love sailing and want a little more power, a “First” package will be available, with a square top mainsail and a low-overlapping jib. Official website .

Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 350 

The new Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 350 is the result of the work of the naval architecture studio Lombard Yacht Design and the naval architecture and design firm Piaton Yacht Design. It offers customizations and different keel versions (deep, shallow, or pivoting). The aft-forward configuration without steps simplifies circulation, while the elimination of the backstay enlarges the space for the helmsman and the cockpit. Also available with electric propulsion for coastal navigation. Official website .

Sunbeam 29.1 

The new Sunbeam 29.1 follows the success of the 32 feet, offering a modern and sporty style ideal for short cruises. With a hydraulic tilting keel, it can sail in shallow waters and is trailerable. Bright and versatile interiors, together with the high standard of construction quality, ensure great onboard comfort. The hull design, modern rigging, and quality equipment translate into excellent sailing performance. Official website .

Sunseeker, Sanlorenzo building up to Boot Dusseldorf

• December 7, 2023

Leading shipyards start to announce their anticipated line-ups for the first major boat show of 2024.

Sunseeker Ocean 182

Sunseeker International looks set to again be among dominant exhibitors at Boot Dusseldorf after announcing a provisional line-up of nine luxury motor yachts for the 2024 edition, which will be held at Messe Dusseldorf from January 20-28.

Presented with distributor Sunseeker London Group, the British builder’s display at Stand B61 in Hall 6 will include the Europe debut of the Ocean 182, which was showcased in the US in September and October. The 182GT, enclosed-flybridge version of the Ocean 90, the Ocean 182 includes over 2,000sqft of interior space and has a top speed of 27 knots and a range of 1,100nm at 12 knots with twin 1,900hp MAN V12 engines.

Another highlight of the Sunseeker line-up is the Germany premiere of the Predator 75, which was unveiled at the Southampton International Boat Show before making its US bow at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

Sunseeker’s impressive display at the world’s biggest indoor boat show also includes the 95 Yacht, 88 Yacht, 76 Yacht, Manhattan 68, Predator 65, Manhattan 55 and Superhawk 55, the latter appearing a year after the model’s memorable world premiere in Hall 6, dedicated to the show’s largest motor yachts.

Andrea Frabetti, Sunseeker’s CEO, said: “In addition to showcasing our stunning line-up of yachts at Boot Dusseldorf, we’re delighted to present the Ocean 182 and Predator 75 to the European market for the first time.

“Our knowledgeable teams and distributors will be on hand to answer questions, discuss customisation options, and guide future Sunseeker owners through the unique features of our yachts. We look forward to welcoming visitors aboard and sharing an exceptional Sunseeker experience.”

Sanlorenzo SL90A

A Sanlorenzo SL90A is set to be among the largest yachts at Boot. A year after the Sanlorenzo SD90 was shown at the Dusseldorf show, the SL90A asymmetric model will be displayed by dealer Sanlorenzo UK & Ireland at stand D27 in Hall 6.

The Italy-built superyacht features a saloon with a widebody design on the port side, while the four en-suite cabins include a main-deck owner’s suite with direct access to the foredeck lounge, which acts as a private owner’s area. With twin 2,000hp MAN diesel engines, the yacht has a top speed of 29 knots, a cruising speed of 25 knots and a cruising range of 1,100nm at 10 knots.

Charter club, news & events, azimut at boot düsseldorf 2024.

Azimut is preparing to attend Boot Düsseldorf, held from the 20 th  to the 28 th  of January 2024.  The stand will feature the Magellano 60, presented as a world premiere at Cannes 2023, and the S7. The Fly Series is also well represented with three models on display: the Fly 53, Fly 68 and Fly 78.

The 2024 edition of Boot Düsseldorf, the largest indoor boat show that will be held from 20 th  to 28 th  of January, anticipates Azimut among its protagonists. The Avigliana Shipyard will participate in the German boat show, one of the industry’s main fairs with more than 1,500 exhibitors and almost 237,000 visitors from all over the world, to welcome customers with some of its most internationally beloved models.

The  Magellano 60 , Azimut’s most recent launch, is a crossover characterized by timeless design and elegant lines, conceived for owners who love long cruises and who wish to spend extended periods of time on board. For this new model, the Shipyard has integrated the latest innovations from the Azimut|Benetti Group R&D department to reduce emissions and generally improve life on board.  Additionally, the Magellano 60 was selected as the vessel for the first voyages powered by  HVOlution, the biofuel produced by Eni Live (Eni Sustainable Mobility)  with 100% renewable raw materials* which, combined with the high-efficiency, semi-planing Dual Mode hull, reduces well-to-wake CO2 emissions by more than 80% compared to a yacht of comparable size powered by fossil fuels.  In addition, on the  Magellano  60 Azimut has introduced a new smart boat automation system which brings  artificial intelligence on board, developed by the Shipyard in partnership with  Google Cloud  and  Reply : through a proprietary app it is possible to interact with the yacht via commands that allow you to control, even remotely, various functions on board.

The S7 , the returning protagonist of Boot 2023, will also be among the models on display in Düsseldorf at the next edition of the boat show. Born from a collaboration with Alberto Mancini for the exteriors, this 22-meter cruiser is characterized by the chic, residentially styled interiors of creative boutique Yachtique. The S7 is a super-light and technologically advanced sport yacht, designed for the most sporty and dynamic owners, which fits into the family of  Azimut’s Low Emission Yachts . Thanks to the combination of a triple Volvo IPS propulsion configuration with the most advanced naval architecture in the category, this model offers optimized performance, achieving a reduction in consumption and CO2 emissions of up to 30% compared to shaft line yachts of the same weight and size with a traditional hard-chine hull.

Alongside these two yachts,  three models from Azimut’s iconic, best-selling Fly Series  will also be present, showcasing more of the Shipyard’s design collaborations with Alberto Mancini. The  Fly 53  is a streamlined vessel, which hides surprisingly large spaces for the 50-foot segment and is perfect for those who want to enjoy longer cruises in absolute comfort. The  Fly 68 , meanwhile, is a cosmopolitan yacht, built around the owner with a selection of three interior layouts, each adapted to a different lifestyle at sea.  Finally, the  Fly 78  features a layout that maximizes comfort and privacy with a clear separation between crew and guest footpaths, as well as a highly versatile living area, which satisfies the taste of the contemporary owner.
