SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – Princess, the luxury boat manufacturers from Plymouth, UK, will be presenting seven new models at boot Düsseldorf 2023. The premium power yachts of these luxury boat builders are truly impressive, ranging from a sporty, luxurious S Class to flybridge superyachts in the X Class, where the X80 is an imposing triplex on the water.

The Princess X80 and the even bigger Princess X95 rightly bear the family name Superfly. For Princess, premium quality always includes sustainability. This is reflected in hybrid propulsion systems, green materials and of course the company’s cooperation with the MarineShift 360 initiative, which assesses the environmental impact of a boat builder’s entire manufacturing process.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – Anyone who wants to go on a long voyage needs space to relax, as well as comfort and a good cruising range – features which are offered by this second biggest power yacht of the luxury manufacturers Prestige. And so Düsseldorf will now see the premiere of the Prestige X60 with a length of 18.91 metres. Her beam of 4.87 metres provides enough space for a large salon and a long galley. At the stern, facing the bridge, there is a lounge area, and between them a companionway leading down to two cabins, each with an ensuite bathroom.

At the back of the cockpit area, a further companionway, which is situated starboard, leads down to the master cabin. There is also the option of a crew cabin in the aft. To power the Prestige X60, which weighs around 25 tonnes, Prestige specifies two Cummins diesels, each with 600 hp and 8.3 litres of displacement. Her draught is 1.31 metres.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – Prestige is Jeanneau’s brand for premium quality power yachts. Now, for the first time in 37 years, the French boat manufacturers have built a power catamaran. Looking at the new Prestige M48from the side, you wouldn’t know that she has a double hull. Yet this impression is deliberate. Outwardly, the new model looks similar to the other three product lines with their classic hulls, but it features a sumptuous 130 square metres of usable space over a length of 14.5 metres and a beam of 6 metres.

These dimensions are perfect for the target group that has been identified in a market research study commissioned by Prestige: people who believe that plenty of space, on-board comfort, cost-effectiveness and stability are a bit more important than a traditional shape.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – The Jeanneau DB/43 marks the launch of a new cruiser line by these French boat builders. The 13.1-metre yacht provides ample space on board and is therefore more than just a boat for the day, even though this is suggested by the letters DB for Day Boat – a term that was last used by Jeanneau in the 1980s. Now DB is back again, designed by Jeanneau’s in-house designer Camillo Garroni.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – The Targa line from the UK boat builders Fairline has been inspiring the premium sector for a decade and a half now. The new Fairline Targa 40 builds on the success of the Targa 38. It’s a great combination of speed, comfort and design at the highest level – thanks to British engineering and Italian aesthetics.

The hardtop with its electric sunroof, a fold-out starboard balcony, a sunbathing area on the foredeck and an open cockpit all add up to a striking impression. The extensive floor-to-ceiling glazing of the salon ensures that the Fairline Targa 40 is bathed in natural daylight, giving passengers an unobstructed view of the sea.

Below deck, the master cabin offers 1.98 meters of headroom, and the two guest beds can be pushed together to form a double bed. The tender garage has enough space for a 2.3-metre dinghy.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – The uncompromising walkaround concept of this 15-metre yacht from the Spanish boat builders De Antonio was already impressive on the D50 Open model. The new De Antonio D50 Coupé now presents a perfect combination of the exterior and the interior. The bridge is protected all round, while the living space opens up flexibly – not just to the side, but also through the generously sized retractable awning on the roof.

The boat can be customised to accommodate two or three cabins and one or two bathrooms. The specially stepped hull and concealed outboard engines allow a top speed of 45 knots. The hydraulic swim platform can be operated from the comfort of an idyllic sunbathing area. 

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – The “small” Bénéteau Swift Trawler 48, still impressively long at 48 feet, will be sporting her registration plate twice in January 2023 – for her German premiere in Düsseldorf. A classic modern trawler, this French boat has a range of 1,300 nautical miles at a leisurely speed of 6.7 knots – or indeed 1,000 nautical miles at 8 knots. This would allow the owner to travel non-stop from New York to Miami.

With two 425 hp Cummins diesel engines at maximum configuration, an owner can also hurry home at 26 knots – just in time for a meal out in a restaurant. In other words, power yacht owners can have the best of both worlds: a long cruising range when they want it and a good speed when they need it. 

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – German premiere for a big one: The Beneteau Grand Trawler 62 is coming to Düsseldorf and has a very clear target group: experienced water travellers (including former sailors) who don’t want to waste too much time looking around, but who just want to take it easy and discover new things. This 18.9-metre cruiser is seaworthy and just right for them.

The 62-foot trawler is available with a choice of three or four cabins, and each cabin has an ensuite bathroom. Even the two six-cylinder engines in the stern don’t have space problems. If this was a hotel, the master cabin alone would easily qualify as a presidential suite. The upper floor is laid out as a veranda, so that only a sun canopy separates the captain and the swimmers from the elements. The foredeck, too, has a secluded little sun deck with a double lounger as a hide-away.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – Whenever Axopar Boats and Brabus Marine work together, there are plenty of superlatives, and their joint product premieres at boot Düsseldorf are almost legendary by now. The launch of the Brabus Shadow 900 Deep Blue Signature Edition on Majorca met with enormous enthusiasm and will soon be followed by a new version of the Axopar 37-based boat: the Brabus Shadow 900 Stealth Green Signature Edition.

In all of Brabus’ projects, the company aims to achieve a “one-second wow” factor, whether it’s a car, a motorbike, a watch or a boat, and so this superboat has been enhanced by numerous top-notch details, e.g. her unmistakable, meticulous paintwork, Sunrise upholstery and cool interior design. The boat can easily reach over 60 knots and is one of the best boats in the market in terms of handling and performance.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 19, 2023 – The Absolute 52 Fly is Italian design at its best. With this 52-foot boat, the Italian boat builders have expanded their current flybridge fleet. The newcomer is said to have all the essential features of her sister vessel, the Absolute 72 Fly, which is 20 feet longer. This includes a flybridge with an integrated terrace, a large stern terrace on the main deck, a generously sized foredeck and three spacious double cabins below deck.

Larger-than-average window surfaces, a three-part sliding door and a glazed rear wall of the cockpit allow plenty of light into the interior of this 16.76-metre power yacht. The saloon offers a 360-degree panorama view. The windows can be opened electrically, and air conditioning is standard in this class.
