Doors close on 2025 Palm Beach International Boat Show

Known to welcome around 55,000 visitors each year, PBIBS is a key event in the yachting calendar, giving the US market opportunities to gain invaluable first-hand experience with some of the latest models for sale and obtain innovative products for completing the ultimate luxury yachting package. 

Along with great insights into the local attractions for future North America yacht charters, visitors to the 2025 edition of the Florida-based show were treated to a good mix of debuts, plus some incredible up-close encounters with iconic superyachts. 

Those attending the show looking for USA yacht charter inspiration found great examples of premium indulgence with the largest in show being none other than the unmistakable silhouette of 279.10ft (85.3m) luxury yacht charter BOLD.

On paper, the largest superyacht scheduled to attend PBIBS 2025 was 332ft (101.2m) superyacht ATTESA IV - who was out at anchor, but it was the military aesthetics of the SilverYachts charter yacht that made her name around the pontoons. Coming from the same shipyard as 117.9ft (35.89m) yacht rental SPACE CAT - best known for her starring role in the US TV show The White Lotus, charter yacht BOLD is a renowned member of the global yacht charter fleet, with her abundance of top-tier toys and ability to access a broad range of destinations.

Joining charter yacht BOLD among the largest attending yachts was 257.4ft (78.44m) superyacht charter AMARYLLIS who made her show debut this year. Last attending PBIBS in 2024 at anchor, she made the official listing for the 2025 edition, allowing visitors the rare opportunity to explore her spacious decks and enticing interiors that are fully equipped for Caribbean and Mediterranean yacht charters. 

Elsewhere around the show, the atmosphere hummed with life around the exhibits with live entertainment, an ongoing social program, and popular attractions including the AquaZone with continuous watersports demonstrations and exclusive talks about sustainability and the future of yachting.

The dates for the 2026 edition have been announced for the 18-22 March, however, the next main luxury yachting event in the US is the 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show scheduled to run from 29 October - 2 November.
