2021 Palm Beach Boat Show Breakdown

Join Executive Editor Charlie Levine as he climbs in, on and all over the newest models to debut at Palm Beach.

Listen to the Podcast in the player below:

Bertram 28CC: Palm Beach Debut

Bertram Yachts recently added a 28-foot center console to its growing lineup. This vessel offers a full head in the console, plenty of seating for the entire family and more than enough room to land some fish.

Galeon 325 GTO: Palm Beach Debut

The first outboard-powered boat from Galeon is full of innovative features and makes great use of space with a cabin that sleeps four and a fold-down terrace to provide more room in the cockpit. This boat is much more than a bowrider.

Sea Force IX 51: Palm Beach Debut

Luxury accommodations, high performance and all of the fishing features you could want mesh well together in the Sea Force IX 51. Whether you aim to overnight at the canyons with the guys or shoot over to the Bahamas with the family to the Bahamas, this boat will get the job done.

Aquila 70 Power Catamaran: Palm Beach Debut

Executive Editor Charlie Levine explores Aquila’s new flagship as she makes her debut in Palm Beach.

Star of the Show: Wheeler 38

The new 38-foot Wheeler looks just like Ernest Hemingway’s famed fishing boat the Pilar. But when you get on board the instant classic you quickly realize that this vessel has every convenience you’d expect on a modern-day yacht. The big difference is the designer and builder went to great lengths to hide those 21st century touches and stay true to the original vessel’s appearance.

A side profile shot of a modern, white Sunseeker 82 Ocean luxury motor yacht cruising at speed across open water. The vessel features striking black-tinted window bands along its multi-deck hull and a black hardtop structure over its upper deck flybridge. It kicks up a substantial white spray and wake as it glides under a soft pink, purple, and gold sunset sky, with a British Red Ensign flag flying from the stern.

Sunseeker 82 Ocean

It may be a cliché, but the second hull in the British builder’s acclaimed Ocean line is a small superyacht with more social spaces than you can count.

An aerial, high-angle three-quarter shot of a white center-console power catamaran cruising through green water, leaving a foaming white wake behind its twin hulls. Two men are on board, with the driver at the helm station beneath a black T-top canopy. The boat features tan upholstered seating, including an open bow lounge area and a rear-facing cockpit bench. The aft deck is finished with a light brown faux-teak swim platform extension flanking twin black outboard engines.

Volare Artemis 23

A scrappy start-up in South Carolina set out to build an electric boat that—they hope—can go the distance.

A low-angle, three-quarter view from the water looking up at a white Invictus ST55 luxury motor yacht idling on calm blue seas. A couple sits relaxing on the spacious aft sunpad deck outside the enclosed main cabin, which features dark tinted windows and black radar domes on the roof. The yacht's modern design includes a fold-down bulwark terrace extended on the starboard side just above the waterline, set against a bright blue sky filled with fluffy white clouds.

Invictus ST55

A decade after Invictus came onto the global scene, the Italian boatbuilder is really hitting its stride.

An aerial, high-angle shot of a light-blue and white Pursuit DC 286 dual-console sports boat cruising fast through dark blue choppy waters. The boat features an open bow seating area, a white hardtop with a radar dome, and twin white Yamaha outboard motors producing a heavy white wake. Long black outrigger poles extend backward from the hardtop canopy, framing the fishing-equipped boat as it cuts through the open ocean.

Pursuit DC 286

The builder’s newest dual console should be atop your five-gallon bucket list.
