Despite fears of rising inflation, boat builders report no pause in the buying feeding frenzy that started with the pandemic two years ago.

After two years of the global pandemic, which started shortly after 2019’s Miami show, the boating feeding frenzy shows no signs of slowing down. The industry continues to report record-high sales across all categories, from personal watercraft to superyachts. Some yacht-brokerage firms have been sold out of good yachts for months. They were at the show taking names for when inventory levels up again.

With its mid-season dates, the Miami show has never been a major event for new-model introductions. This year was no different. A handful of US builders, Boston Whaler, Invincible, Scout and Formula, introduced new models while others like Leopard’s 46 Powercat and Beneteau’s ST48 Swift Trawler were global launches. Other European-built boats like theE60, Azimut 68 Fly and Ferretti Yachts 500 weren’t launches, but were being shown in the US market for the first time.

announced its new EX 60 flagship, which should make its physical appearance later this year. “After several years of building outboard-powered models, this is a return to the Tiara heritage of inboard cruisers,” Tiara’s Dena Meiste told“This will be our biggest boat yet, and with three staterooms, it will put more focus on staying aboard for longer.”

With the Miami market being the originator of high performance, “Miami Vice”-style boats, local builder Midnight Express unveiled its polarizing new 52 Vitesse rocketship. “We’ve already sold eight boats, and this is only the second day,” Lesly Puntes, Midnight Express marketing director told. “It’s the boat many of our customers have been waiting for.” Priced around $2 million, the 52 Vitesse comes with six Mercury 450 Racing outboards, with the option of six V12 600s.
