This September, Ancasta is making it easier than ever for prospective boat owners to explore, compare and experience some of the world's leading power and sail brands, with a major presence at three premier boat shows across Europe.

From Northern Europe to the French Riviera and back to the UK, Ancasta's expert team will be showcasing an exceptional portfolio of sailing boats, motor yachts and multihulls, giving buyers multiple opportunities to step onboard and find the right boat for their lifestyle.

Whether purchasing a first boat, upgrading to a larger yacht or planning long-term cruising adventures, visitors can rely on Ancasta's experienced brokers for expert guidance throughout every stage of the ownership journey.

From world premieres and new model launches to brokerage opportunities, Ancasta's autumn events provide unrivalled access to one of the broadest selections of premium brands available through a single brokerage.

"Choosing a yacht is about finding the one that's right for you, your family and the way you want to enjoy life on the water," says Stuart Brotherton, Sales Director at Ancasta.

"By exhibiting at three key events this autumn, we're giving buyers the opportunity to experience a diverse range of yachts first-hand, while benefiting from the knowledge of our experienced team. Whether you're embarking on your first boat purchase or searching for your next yacht, we're here to support you in making a confident and informed choice."

HISWA te Water
2-6 September | Bataviahaven, The Netherlands

Launching the autumn show season, Ancasta will make its debut at HISWA te Water following the recent opening of its new sales office in Amsterdam.

Recognised as Northern Europe's largest in-water boat show, Ancasta will present an impressive selection from its range of premium yachts, offering visitors the opportunity to discover the latest models in one of Europe's most established boating markets.

Cannes Yachting Festival
8-13 September | Cannes, France

Ancasta will then head to the prestigious Cannes Yachting Festival, where it will showcase one of its most comprehensive lineups across the Port Canto and Vieux Port marinas.

Among the highlights will be the world premiere of the highly anticipated Prestige F6.7, alongside the global debuts of Lagoon Catamarans' Lagoon 47 and the new Lagoon Eighty3 power catamaran, both designed to deliver effortless onboard living and exceptional cruising capability.

Bluegame will also unveil the all-new BG64, combining the seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle of the BG74 with the proven engineering platform of the BGX63.

Visitors will also be able to explore Beneteau Power's new generation of Gran Turismo models, alongside the latest additions to the ever-popular Swift Trawler range.

Completing Ancasta's Cannes showcase will be an extensive selection of Beneteau sailing yachts, together with two outstanding luxury bluewater cruisers from Contest Yachts - the Contest 50CS and the award-winning Contest 63CS.

Swanwick Yachting Showcase
19-27 September | Swanwick Marina, Southampton

Returning to the UK, Ancasta will exhibit at the new Swanwick Yachting Showcase. This boutique show will offer buyers a more relaxed and personalised viewing experience, with a touch of the island life following Ancasta's recent partnership with Goslings Rum.

Held at Swanwick Marina on the River Hamble, this free, appointment-only event is designed for serious buyers looking to explore a carefully curated collection of new yachts, premium brokerage listings and stock boats available for immediate handover.

These turnkey opportunities are ideal for anyone looking to get on the water before the end of the season or secure a yacht ahead of 2027.

The Swanwick lineup will feature leading models from Prestige, Beneteau Power, Beneteau Sail, Lagoon, Bluegame and Sanlorenzo, with sea trials available on selected models by appointment from the Monday to Thursday of the event.

"Boat shows are a great opportunity to step aboard and compare a wide range of yachts, but they're only one part of the journey," continues Stuart.

"Our experienced brokers are on hand year-round, across our 24 offices, to provide expert guidance, arrange private viewings and help customers find the right boat with confidence."
