The Palm Beach International Boat Show returns to Florida's east coast, where the world's finest superyachts, boats and exhibitors meet up in sunny West Palm Beach.

Held from March 23rd to 26th, the 2023 show is set to be one of the most eagerly awaited events on the United States boating calendar. Ferretti Group continues to ramp up its presence on the American market and returns to the East Coast with a fleet of six carefully selected models after taking part in the Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show last February.

Ready to make a splash in US waters, wallypower58X stars in her world premiere, celebrating the innovative aesthetics of wallypower118 two decades after that yacht's international debut. The real innovation of the model can be identified in the configuration of the aft section, which is designed to support up to four Mercury Verado V12 engines of 600 horsepower each without interfering with the passage of the owner and his guests to the water. Among the most distinctive elements there's also the 'magic porthole': since the windows usually have an impact on the aesthetics of the hull, it has been decided to eliminate them completely, replacing them with video cameras installed on either side of the boat. This solution not only requires less maintenance, but also eliminates the risk of damaging the glass and, most importantly, ensures maximum privacy.

One of the most interesting yachts launched in 2023, it will be joined by some of the models that best represent the Group's brands:

  • Pershing 8X
  • Ferretti Yachts 780
  • Custom Line Navetta 42
  • Riva 88' Folgore
  • Riva 130' Bellissima

The prestigious US event showcases Ferretti Group's partnerships with exclusive Italian and international brands: Dolce&Gabbana designs the Group's uniforms, while the finest wines from La Scolca and Pommery are ready for guests to raise in a celebratory toast. The Group's trusted automotive partner is Range Rover, which offers a car service to customers and owners in the new Range Rover line, with air transport available thanks to the collaboration with Flexjet. The selection also includes long-standing partner Seabob, which showcases its magnificent limited editions with custom livery created specifically for the Group's brands. The line-up of sponsors is completed by the collaboration with the Monaco Yacht Club.
