Comfortable and seaworthy with a cruising range of 900 nautical miles and a central raised helm station, Beneteau’s Grand Trawler 62 (62′ LOA, 17′ 10″ beam) is designed for long-distance sailing. With room for six to eight people plus crew, the well-appointed spaces on board are sophisticated, yet practical, and sizable thanks to the generous volume of the hull. Nauta Design combined satin wax-finished wood, leather, and elegant textiles that make for a very stylish interior and exterior. The luxurious three-cabin layout features a full-beam owner’s cabin with a spacious ensuite amidship, forward VIP, and a third cabin with twin berths. The amidship cabin can convert to two guest cabins creating a four-stateroom layout with the forward VIP becoming the owner’s stateroom. The Grand Trawler 62 has one of the largest flybridges on the market, and its distinctive displacement hull developed by MICAD makes it easier for owners to cast off on long-distance cruises. beneteau.com
Azimut Yachts’ new Magellano 25 Metri (82′ 9″ LOA, 20′ 10″ beam) is an expedition yacht with style and class. To achieve an acceptable range on a planing vessel, the builder developed a new generation of the Dual Mode (D2P or displacement to planing) hull with twin chines designed to give the least resistance possible. Designer Vincenzo De Cotiis created two aesthetic options for the interior, which include four staterooms and five heads plus crew accommodations. The Contemporary design blends striking mixes of color, gold accents, and lots of mirrors. The Timeless version combines classic colors and textures with a more subdued approach. Azimut offers unique extras, such as an enormous bank of lithium batteries, “hotel mode” that eschews generators while running onboard systems day and night, and the builder’s BCOOL system that continuously circulates and sanitizes the air on board. Standard twin 1,400-hp MAN V12 diesels (or a 1,550-hp engine upgrade) make this head-turner go the distance at a maximum speed of 26 knots at 2,460 rpm. azimutyachts.com
The second addition to the new Grand Banks family series is the Grand Banks 54 (60′ 5″ LOA, 17′ 6″ beam), available in both flybridge and enclosed skylounge configurations. The beautifully designed luxury yacht has the same classic, rugged, Downeast hull lines as her sisterships and a warped semi-displacement hull to reduce drag. Making full use of the wide beam, the cockpit and salon areas are wide open, airy, and perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Large electric windows side and aft of the salon allow panoramic sightlines and fresh breezes to permeate throughout the boat. Grand Banks knows the importance of flexibility and offers three livability options—a three-stateroom layout (master, twin guests with twin berths), a galley-up design, or exchanging the starboard salon settee with a two-seat dinette. The most impressive feature on the GB54 is the soft, quiet ride, achieved through layers of insulation and acoustic sound shields. Twin 725-hp Volvo D11 gets you to a highly efficient cruise speed of 25 knots. grandbanks.com
Known as the Absolute Pathfinder, the Navetta 64 (64′ 5″ LOA, 18′ 1″ beam) incorporates all of Absolute Yachts’ best features as well as outstanding innovations. The use of glass throughout gives this boat a large, open, voluminous feel. The wide side glass windows outline her exterior shape, defined by the substantial enlargement of the bow windows and the opening of the side gunwales in the cockpit. Expansive panoramic windows in the three staterooms—a king-size master with full-beam ensuite, large VIP, and a double cabin—as well as frameless glass windows in the salon with comfortable sofas, entertainment area, and galley brighten these spaces. The salon is overlooked by a steering position with a curved and frameless windshield of more than 10 feet, providing guests unobstructed views forward. In the beach club version of the Navetta 64, the transom can configure from a large storage area to a double cabin thanks to a watertight access door. absoluteyachts.com
Hinckley Company designed a new expedition hull for its Hunt Ocean 63 (69′ 6″ LOA, 18′ beam) to globetrot for extended periods of time. Designed by C. Raymond Hunt Design, the deep-V hull has a 20-degree transom deadrise that provides a stable ride even in rough conditions. Powered by twin 1,000-hp Volvo Penta IPS 1350s with pod drives, top speed is 31 knots at wide open throttle. Cruising speeds are 25-27 knots where you can expect to go 350-plus miles without a fuel stop. At 10 knots, you’ll near a 1,000-mile range depending on conditions. Owners can personalize their layout, including three- or four-cabin accommodations and a galley up or down arrangement. The lower helm is to starboard and has a Stidd captain’s chair, Garmin MFDs, and Side-Power thruster controls. The aft cockpit is on the same level as the salon, so traffic flows easily. The flydeck sports an upper helm, a corner dinette, and twin Stidd chairs facing the centerline dash. An outdoor galley module is optional and the hardtop is standard. huntyachts.com
The latest M-Class 720 Motoryacht represents some fresh thinking and innovation thanks to her owners’ involvement. Outer Reef’s Classic Series is its most popular model with an intelligent design, easy handling, and excellent performance. To this, the owners of Tailwinds (71′ 8″ LOA, 18′ 6″ beam) worked with the Outer Reef design team to add a custom stainless steel-edged door to the aft deck with an adjacent lowering glass wall. They also added dive locker storage, compressor connections on the enormous swim platform, and custom stainless steel and lighted glass gates. The 2,000-gallon fuel capacity, a cruising speed between 9 and 15 knots, and handling like a much smaller boat when maneuvering, the Outer Reef 720 is a home away from home. outerreefyachts.com
Speed, efficiency, seakeeping ability, and comfort are top of the list for the Marlow 58E (67′ 8″ LOA, 18′ 6″ beam). Outfitted with a pair of 1,150-hp Caterpillar C18 diesel engines that can reach a range of 1,500 nautical miles at 8.1 knots, long-range cruising is another top-of-the-list checkmark. Marlow incorporates its proprietary Velocijet Strut Keels on the 58E which protect the propeller shafts and running gear as well as add stability and improved tracking. A new feature on this yacht is the aft beach club that offers an option to include a berth and head and allows closer interaction with the water to launch water toys or relax with feet over the side. Additional options, such as electric thrusters, watermaker, Naiad stabilizers, more freezers for provisions, a 3,500-watt inverter system, or a fold-down radar mast, mean you can spend lots of time away from shore.
Riviera states that the 645 SUV (69′ 8″ LOA, 19′ 1″ beam) has the largest water sports and fishing cockpit of all the models in its SUV Collection. When the sliding glass door and large awning window are open, the alfresco deck seamlessly blends with the salon and galley to create a single-level living and entertainment area. Add the full-beam master stateroom as well as the choice of two or three staterooms with three heads plus an optional lower lounge and crew cabin, utility room or additional accommodation, and you have an entire “home.” That’s not including the hydraulic swim platform or large foredeck area with sunbed and lounge options.
As for cruising, the standard twin shaft drive MAN V8 1,300-hp turbo diesel engines (or optional MAN 12 1,550-hp engines) along with a 1,717-gallon fuel tank will get you where you want to go.
You can personalise your 645 SUV with an array of interior packages and two design styles, the more traditional Classic Edition or avant-garde Newport Edition. Whichever you choose, from boarding platform to bow, you’ll relish the Riviera attention to detail, handcrafted luxury and exceptional operational technology.
Picture yourself on board your Riviera 645 SUV, exploring the great waterways of the world, diving in the Bahamas, or sport fishing on the Reef. Magic! rivieraaustralia.com
With an impressive 330-nautical mile range at 23 knots, The Summit 54′ (58′ 5″ LOA, 15′ 10″ beam) is powered by twin Cummins QSB6.7, 542-hp engines with Cummins SmartCraft controls. Instead of traditional trim tabs, the Summit 54’ utilizes the state-of-the-art Zipwake Dynamic Trim-Control System for ultimate comfort and fuel economy. Designed by Michael Peters, the yacht is crafted with proper boarding gates, fully walkable side decks, wraparound windows, and perfect spots to relax and enjoy the view. Comfortable spaces stretch throughout the yacht from the large swim platform to the aft deck to the foredeck sun lounge and up to the flybridge.

Cold-molded yachts like those from Vicem offer a flexibility in boatbuilding that you don’t get from a fiberglass mold. The builder’s new 67 Cruiser (68′ LOA, 18′ 1″ beam) is all mahogany, and clients can work closely with the builder to get exactly what they want. The classic layout combines comfortable accommodations, including two master suites with king berths, and ample exterior social spaces like a full-length flybridge. Certified CE Design Category A, the 67 Cruiser has a hard-chine, deep-V hull for increased dynamic stability, and a sharp bow entry to reduce wave resistance. Powered by twin 1,000-hp Volvo Penta D13 diesels using conventional shaft drives and a 2,110-gallon fuel tank, the 67 can reach 800 nautical miles at her 16-knot cruising speed.
As for entertaining space, the 67 Cruiser creates five distinct “zones” for your guests to luxuriously treasure their time on the water. The hard-topped flybridge includes a spacious day bed, while the foredeck includes both a large sun bed and a forward-facing settee. The cockpit offers seating for eight around a large, highly varnished mahogany table, in complete shade. These same eight guests can enjoy interior cocktails in the salon’s matching settees, or they can be treated to formal interior dining just aft of the helm area.
From top to bottom the 67 Cruiser offers all of the glamor and functionality of her larger siblings, but in a smaller package. Elegant, safe comfort without compromise – that’s what makes our latest and greatest Cruiser a yacht worth owning. vicemyachts.com
Maritimo fuses the latest technological advances with the iconic features of its M-Series in the new Maritimo M55 (56′ 8″ LOA, 17′ 2″ beam). Built in Australia, the new long-range cruising motoryacht features extensive entertainment areas that include a fully enclosed, climate-controlled flybridge helm with an internal staircase and lounge area. The “adventure” aft deck has an optional extended platform that comes fixed or hydraulic, but the real feature is a hidden storage space under the aft deck that is large enough to hold a nine-foot tender and an optional 550-pound davit. The large, alfresco, upper cockpit, walkaround decks, enormous salon, and three spacious staterooms with two ensuite heads provide considerable and versatile living spaces. Two Volvo D11s and 1,200 gallons of fuel deliver a good cruise range.
As soon as you step aboard the new M55 you will appreciate the Maritimo difference and you will be immediately captivated by its space – easily accommodating your family in style, safety and comfort. A fully enclosed climate-controlled flybridge sky lounge with internal staircase access provides the essential comfort needed for long-range cruising and passage making. maritimoamericas.com
Regal has once again raised the bar to new heights – The Regal 42 FXO celebrated its world premiere at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. This adrenaline-charged 42’ flybridge is an unrivaled overnighter, ultimate sandbar hopper, unparalleled entertainer, and the only one in its class.
Regal’s North American Sales Manager Jake Kuck said, “We’ve never had a flagship model with this much versatility, storage, performance, or comfort, and the list of standard features is exciting. The triple Yamaha 425s move this 42’ flybridge at nearly 50 mph, and because it doesn’t have IPS power, we’ve been able to utilize that space to create an unmatched storage area that’s full-beam wide, 42” tall, and nearly 6’ deep. That’s enough room for your beach cruiser bicycles and more. There are different cabin layouts for even more versatility, and with the standard Seakeeper, this new model ensures that everyone’s boxes are checked. And, saving the best for last, here’s my favorite part of the 42 FXO. Thanks to the outboards and hull design, you can stern-in only steps away from your favorite beach or sandbar.”
From the transom to the flybridge to the bow, the 42 FXO exceeds expectations. The flybridge is appointed with a full-service helm, including a 22” Glass Cockpit display or optional 16” displays, and a joystick for docking ease. The L-shaped lounge, multi-position UltraLounge, and unlimited storage under almost every seat complete the list of reasons the 42 FXO’s flybridge is unmatched.
Like the 2021 Regal 42 Fly, the 42 FXO upper salon boasts a feature-rich upper galley, full-service lower helm, and a layout that’s designed for ultimate entertaining. Simply slide open the glass doors to combine the aft patio seating, salon seating, galley, and outdoor grilling area into one seamless entertainment space. And the large single-piece glass windows surround the upper salon for an abundance of natural light and 360* views.
Below, in the open-air atrium, you will immerse yourself in a cabin with copious amounts of handcrafted cabinetry, beautiful countertops, and accent lighting that sets a comforting ambiance. To port of the stairs, you can choose to have a second head or a lower refreshment center. To starboard is a luxurious head with modern finishes and a spacious walk-in shower.
The forward stateroom features a queen island berth with walk-around space to both sides and bountiful storage. Last but not least is the aft stateroom, featuring an actual king size bed. To accommodate extra guests or the need for additional beds, slide apart the king bed and lock two true-size twins in place. Across from the convertible king bed, you’ll find a comfortable settee, more storage lockers, and drawers.
When it comes to versatility, Regal’s all-new 42 FXO sets a new industry standard for day yachting and overnight boating. For more information on these models, visit your local Regal Dealer or cruise on over to regalboats.com.
Flagship of CL Yachts’ CLB series, the CLB88 is making her global debut in Fort Lauderdale. Built in consultation with structural engineering firm Gurit, the 25-knot 88-foot, 11-inch (22’ 6” beam) hull is certified by RINA and constructed with a strategic use of carbon fiber and advanced resin-infusion technology. Her interior design is equally modern with an open-plan layout and oversized windows. Designer Jozeph Forakis has created a comfortable and inviting atmosphere on board with a sophisticated and bright design that flows seamlessly to the exterior decks.

Horizon’s Fast Displacement series is rapidly becoming the builder’s most in-demand model. Just look at the lineup: U.S. debuts of the FD75, FD92, and FD102. With a voluminous design, floor-to-ceiling windows, on-deck masters, and an advanced hull design with a piercing bow, they have clearly struck a chord with today’s yacht buyers. The FD75 (75’ LOA, 22’ 4” beam) is the smallest in the family designed with the owner-operator in mind but with crew quarters as well. It has a “semi” on-deck master two steps down. The FD92Crowned Eagle (93’ LOA, 23’ 3” beam) is a tri-deck adaptation of the more standard sizes offered in the series which shows the builder’s commitment to customization. The FD102, called Tò-Kalòn, is another such example. At 101 feet, 9 inches, (25’ 3” beam) she fits precisely on her home dock in Fort Myers, yet offers 50 percent more volume than the owner’s first Tò-Kalòn, a more traditional design of the same length. horizonyachtusa.com
After the model was unveiled in Miami last February, the Palm Beach GT60 is making an encore appearance in Fort Lauderdale, this time with Hull No. 2. Both fast and fuel efficient, the 64-foot yacht (17’ 2” beam) has a low-resistance hull design with a fine entry and lightweight carbon fiber construction from the deck up. With twin 1,000-hp Volvo Penta IPS drives, the GT60 can make up to 42 knots wide open throttle, yet at 10 knots, she sips a measly six gallons per hour. All of this is wrapped in an elegant design featuring a large swim platform, a tender garage for a 10-foot RIB, and a full-beam cockpit flowing into the salon that features a concealed recessed sunroof. palmbeachmotoryachts.com
