A strong year for new yacht introductions
HISWA te Water 2026 is once again proving to be an important stage for new models and world premieres.
Among the notable introductions is the world premiere of the new Hanse 461, presented by West Yachting. The model combines performance cruising with easy handling and has been designed to be manageable even with a small crew.
Mulder Shipyard is also presenting a world premiere with the new Favorite 52 Motion, while Rapsody Yachts is showing the first R35 V-Foil to the public. Other new introductions include the Nimbus 495 Flybridge, the renewed Reborn 40 R Cabin and several additional premieres from Dutch and international builders.
Together, these launches underline a clear direction within the market: owners are increasingly looking for yachts that combine comfort, efficiency, performance and easier operation.
More than a boat show
What makes HISWA te Water particularly attractive is the opportunity to experience yachts where they belong: in the water.
Rather than viewing a yacht purely from a showroom floor, visitors can compare models, speak directly with builders and industry specialists and experience the atmosphere of the marina.
Beyond the yachts themselves, the event includes watersports activities, presentations, hospitality and the HISWA Village overlooking the harbour.
For prospective owners, it is an excellent opportunity to explore the market and compare different concepts within a single visit.
A meeting place for buyers, owners and the industry
For Yachts & More, shows such as HISWA te Water are about more than discovering new yachts.
They provide an opportunity to meet owners, buyers, shipyards and fellow professionals personally, exchange knowledge and gain a clear understanding of what is currently happening in the European yacht market.
Personal relationships remain an essential part of yacht brokerage. Whether a client is considering purchasing a yacht, selling an existing vessel or simply exploring future possibilities, events such as HISWA create the ideal environment for those conversations.
