This Year’s Boating Scene: It’s Looking up!

At the US winter shows, the boating industry puts its best foot forward. Between Miami and Palm Beach, the region hosts no fewer than five major boat shows. The Yacht & Brokerage Show on Miami Beach and the Miami International Boat Show, and related Strictly Sail, run February 14 to 18. These three shows mark the debut of dozens of new models and showcase hundreds of craft, from small center consoles to megayachts.

Miami 2013: Sessa Fly 54

Recognizably Sessa, this new flybridge model designed by Christian Grande will ply US waters for the first time at the Miami show.

Miami 2013: Sessa C44

Based in Italy, Sessa Marine responded to customers’ requests for an open version of the C43 with its new C44. Available in two maindeck layouts, the C44 offers a spacious platform for entertaining small or large groups.

Sessa Style: Fly 54, C44 and Key Largo 34

Sessa is a relative newcomer to the flybridge market. A year ago it introduced in Miami its first flybridge yacht, the Fly 45. Then came the Fly 40. In Miami this year Sessa unveils its 54 in part to meet the demands of its US dealer Total Marine.

Fort Lauderdale 2012: Sessa Fly 45

The first hull of the 46-foot flybridge model debuted in Cannes last year and was shown at the Yacht & Brokerage Show in Miami in 2012 when we had an opportunity to get aboard. Equipped with a hydraulic swim platform, this compact flybridge yacht boasts a particularly large flybridge, which was extended aft and is capable of hosting 10 guests.

The fun factor

Isn’t it great that you can rediscover a place you thought you knew well? I had this experience recently when I met Alfonso Esper. A
