The 257-foot super yacht TV will be the largest at #FLIBS2017. More than 1,000 boats will be on display November 1-5
Every November in Fort Lauderdale, the largest in-water boat show in the world draws high net worth individuals from around the globe to shop for the latest and largest luxury super yachts by the industry’s most prominent ship builders. Listed on this year’s Wealth-X Billionaire Social Calendar, the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show opens Wednesday, November 1 at noon and runs through Sunday, November 5, spanning 3 million square feet of exhibition space at seven locations conveniently linked by land shuttles and water taxis.
Multi-million-dollar superyachts comprise an elite subset among the more than 1,000 boats of all sizes and prices on display. This year’s largest, a distinction often referred to as the “Queen of the Show,” is the 257-foot TV by German yacht builder Lurssen, featuring eight staterooms, an elevator and a helipad.
