New boats to see at the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show in late May 2026 include models from Whitehaven Yachts, Riviera Australia and Caribbean. Many boat builders release their new models at this premium boating industry event because of the great exposure with many visitors and many keen buyers. This show grows every year with exceptional experiences available for visitors and exceptional opportunities for exhibitors.
Many visitors, and potential buyers, are attracted to the event specifically to see the latest industry releases. While those ‘just looking, thanks’ can wait to be surprised when they arrive at the event, genuine buyers will want to be more prepared. Potential buyers will be wanting to review their options ahead of the show. Consider the features of the new models and get at least part-way to a buying decision before that step-aboard inspection at the show.
