Pearl Yachts is attending the 2021 International Boat Show in Fort Lauderdale to present the Pearl 62, Pearl 80 and Pearl 95. Capitalizing on the momentum of a successful year, the shipyard, together with US dealer Atlantic Yacht & Ship Co, will exhibit at its usual location near the Hall of Fame on the FaceDock.

Following a warm welcome from the American market this year, Pearl is pleased to announce the yard's participation in the 2021 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show from the 27th to the 31st of October with three models on display. The Pearl 62, Pearl 80 and Pearl 95, speak for themselves and show the breadth of the designers' talent. Exterior architect Bill Dixon and interior designer Kelly Hoppen CBE adapt their world-famous styling to each model, always refining, simplifying and modernizing the look and the function.

The Mothership

At 29m, the Bill Dixon-designed Pearl 95 is Pearl Yachts' flagship and it has proven to be an award-winning combination of performance, style and quality, with a full beam owner's cabin on the main deck and an expansive beach club with fold down buttresses. Taking the title of 'Best Layout' at the World Yachts Trophies 2018, the Pearl 95 went on to receive the awards of 'Best Interior Design - Power Yachts' and 'Best Main Saloon' at the International Yacht and Aviation Awards 2019.

The Pocket-Superyacht

The Pearl 80 offers an exhilarating experience, earning industry-wide acclaim since the model's launch. Dixon Yacht Design contoured an aerodynamic exterior, with particular attention given to both the large windscreen and the three tiers of glazing on each side of the yacht. The Pearl 80 reaches a top speed of 35 knots, and features a spectacular flybridge, a hydraulic bathing platform and accommodations for eight guests and two crew.

The Younger Sister

Measuring 18.6m, the Pearl 62 is the only yacht in the size-class to offer accommodations for eight guests across four cabins, including a full beam owner's suite with a private entrance, plus the owner's choice of a crew cabin or jet ski garage. Other highlights include an aft galley open to the cockpit, a vast flybridge, a foredeck lounge, and the benefit of Volvo IPS pod drive propulsion, including joystick control.

Speaking about the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Pearl Yachts Managing Director, Iain Smallridge said, "This year's Boat Show in Florida is a big date for Pearl Yachts. Following a great year in the American market with our area dealer Atlantic Yacht & Ship Co, we are investing in a major presence at the event to accompany the Pearl fleet. And the team are looking forward to seeing our American customers, colleagues and friends."
