Present your vessel at its absolute finest. From pre-show preparation to on-site presence — we handle every detail so your vessel makes the impression it deserves.

Flawless from first impression

Your Vessel at Its Absolute Best

Boat shows demand meticulous preparation and flawless execution. Our boat show support team handles every detail — from pre-show preparation and transport logistics to on-site presentation and post-show care — ensuring your vessel makes the impression it deserves.

A boat show is one of the highest-visibility moments in a yacht's life — whether you're presenting to potential buyers, entertaining clients, or showcasing a new build. The standard of presentation must be flawless, and the logistics behind it must be invisible. Our boat show support team has extensive experience preparing and presenting vessels at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the Miami International Boat Show, and other premier events.

In the weeks leading up to a show, we execute a comprehensive preparation program — full detailing, mechanical checks, systems testing, and any cosmetic work needed to bring your vessel to showroom condition. We coordinate transport, arrange slip assignments, and handle all the logistical details so nothing is left to chance on show day.

Based in Fort Lauderdale — home of the world-renowned Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show — we are ideally positioned to support your show preparation and on-site needs right here in our own backyard. For owners participating in shows in Miami or Palm Beach, we regularly extend our services to those events as well. Contact us early to discuss your show calendar and we'll build a preparation timeline that ensures your vessel is ready.

Common questions

Boat Show Support FAQ

Which boat shows do you support?

We primarily support the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) — the world's largest in-water boat show, right in our backyard — as well as the Miami International Boat Show, the Palm Beach International Boat Show, and other South Florida marine events. We can also support shows outside South Florida with advance planning.

How far in advance should I book boat show support?

For FLIBS, we recommend booking at least 6–8 weeks in advance. Slip assignments, transport logistics, and pre-show preparation all require lead time. The earlier you engage us, the more comprehensive the preparation program we can build for your vessel.

What does pre-show preparation include?

Pre-show prep typically includes a full detail (hull, topsides, brightwork, interior), mechanical and systems check, cosmetic touch-ups, canvas and upholstery inspection, and a final walk-through to ensure the vessel is in showroom condition. We tailor the scope to your vessel's needs and your presentation goals.

Can you handle transport and slip logistics?

Yes. We coordinate vessel transport to and from the show venue, arrange slip assignments, and handle all the logistical details so nothing is left to chance on show day. We have established relationships with show organizers and marina operators throughout South Florida.

Do you provide on-site staff during the show?

Yes. We can provide on-site crew and support staff throughout the show — maintaining vessel presentation, assisting with guest boarding, and handling any issues that arise during the event. We stay with your vessel so you can focus on your guests and your business.
