Headlined by superyachts up to 56m, the line-up for the second Singapore Yachting Festival at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove will see exclusive additions including the first HH88 sailing catamaran, Perini Navi’s 183ft Galileo and Sanlorenzo SD118. Held from April 25-28, organisers have stated that all booths and berths are ‘fully subscribed’, with over 70 yachts expected along with water toys, in-water demos, sea trials, speedboat rides and supercars.

The four-day show will be preceded by the ICOMIA Boating Industry Conference (April 23-24) and Wednesday evening’s YACHT STYLE Awards (April 24), with both events also held at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove. 

Show tickets are available online and priced at SDG 54.50 nett for a single-day pass and SDG 81.75 nett for a multi-day pass, while a two-day conference pass costs SDG 218 nett.

Bluegame BG42 and BGX73

As well as an increase in yachts on the water, a notable addition to this year’s show is the on-land Lifestyle Festival Market featuring pop-up F&B stalls and family-friendly carnival games, while live music and roving entertainment will keep visitors entertained on and off the pontoons.

The show’s largest yacht will be the 55.7m Galileo, a steel and aluminium expedition yacht built by Perini Navi, exhibited by IYC and available for charter in the Maldives and Southeast Asia. The show will include several other superyachts including the 40m Silentworld charter yacht exhibited by Iseo Yachting and the 36m Azimut Hye Seas 2 by ONE°15 Charters Luxury Yachting.

Sanlorenzo SD118

Simpson Marine’s line-up includes the Asia debut of the SD118 – the flagship of Sanlorenzo’s semi-displacement range – as well as its SL96A and SX88 superyachts. Asia’s largest yacht dealer is also staging the regional premiere of Bluegame’s flagship BGX73, Southeast Asia debut of the BG42 and Asia first for Fairline’s two-balcony Squadron 58, which had its world premiere last September.

Wally’s 89ft wallywhy200 ‘spaceship’ and the wallypower58 both have Asia-Pacific premieres, while Ferretti Group Asia-Pacific and dealer Hong Seh Yachting will also show a Ferretti Yachts 780 and stage the Singapore debut of the Rivamare, the elegant 39-footer from Riva’s Open line.
