For boat owners who like it spontaneous, Bénéteau offers the tailor-made model: the Bénéteau Antares 7. For a day trip the 7.50 m powerboat can be effortlessly transported to the water by trailer. And with its tulip-shaped hull the Antares 7 is extremely agile and safe.

Aquador Boats will also bring Aquador 250 HT’s bigger sister to boot Düsseldorf. The Aquador 300 HT is a sophisticated cruiser for all with a flair for comfort, a touch of luxury and plenty of space on board. But safety ranks first for this international launch. With a healthy respect for nature the Aquador engineers have designed the 300 HT in such a way that it can be used in almost any environment.

“Unique is a term often used, but rarely merited” – this is the claim Aquador Boats from Sweden used to present its own global launch: the Aquador 250 HT. The compact weekender sports a hard-top design and unique layout – with a wide swim platform, large cockpit under the long cabin roof, and plenty of space below deck, this family boat is as homely as it is generously spaced.

AMT Boats from Finland are “bred” for winning awards. Now the Finnish shipyard will exhibit their newest and biggest model, the AMT 240 DC, in Germany for the first time. Easy to handle, with a rock-solid structure and very fast on demand, the AMT flagship is great both as a day cruiser and for longer journeys.

Also new, the AMT 210 DC is the Finnish response to the demand for day cruisers, which has been on the rise for many years now. Hard to guess from the outside: thanks to the AMT 210 DC’s roomy cabin, even longer trips are pleasant and comfortable to make. Important to know for starters: like all boats the AMT 210 DC also comes with comprehensive standard furnishings.

The Toxxic line gives Europe Marine’s Viper powerboats an extra boost. On the almost 7 m long new bowrider Viper Toxxic 225 up to 350 hp are working hard below deck. Safety on board is ensured by 100% production and final acceptance in Germany. The open bow area with its white lounge benches allows two persons to stretch out.

The bowrider design gives the middle-sized model of the Viper line more social areas on board – and a better experience. A racy powerboat for family excursions. 

Those looking for a no-frills yet solid boat for fishing or swimming trips are perfectly catered for with Tinn-Silver. These aluminium boats have long proven their worth in continuous professional use. The 4.50 m long Tinn-Silver 450 Pro – like the Sport model – is made of 4 mm, marine-grade aluminium. Her stability is enhanced even further by the more bulbous hull.

Manufacturer Correct Craft has been building powerboats since 1925. Over the years the company has acquired various American powerboat builders and grown into a marine group with twelve brands. These also include Nautique from Florida, a specialist in light towboats for wakeboarding and water-skiing.

The Europe Team of the legendary US powerboat brand Sea Ray will be showcasing the complete fleet at their exhibition stand in Düsseldorf. 16 models will be on show in total, and the star of the show will be the new Sea Ray SPX 210. The compact bowrider for ten persons is built in Europe and scores points thanks to her high-quality finish. All cut edges are rounded and perfectly sealed.

Boat builder Conrad Pischel always goes about things thoroughly. His latest RIB, the Conrad Pischel R.I.B. Line 8.5 GTO Open, is as resilient as it looks. The hand-crafted inflatable tubes have been reinforced with heavy-duty slats, the aft outboards are protected by a protruding swim platform and the bow is equipped with a safe access tread.
