A s proud media partner of boot Düsseldorf 2026, we take an early look at the most anticipated motorboat premieres heading to the world’s biggest indoor boat show. From futuristic electric tenders to extreme race-day speedsters and luxury family cruisers, this year’s line-up proves that innovation, design and sustainability continue to reshape the segment from the inside out.
boot Düsseldorf opens its doors once again this January, and this year’s motorboat section is more forward-leaning than ever. Across day cruisers, tenders, family yachts and fully electric newcomers, several shipyards arrive with world premieres that underline how quickly this category is evolving.
Among the first reveals, the renewed collaboration between 3D Marine and Suzuki brings a complete tender range with aluminium and carbon constructions, pushing stability and ultra-light handling. On the futuristic side, Amare’s AMY 330e introduces a fully electric tender concept with wireless control and low-voltage batteries, built around a sleek carbon design theme.
One of the most surprising world premieres belongs to Evene Tenders, founded in 2024 and already introducing tailor-made dinghies designed as companions for 30-metre plus superyachts. Customisation, from instrumentation to hull finishes, takes centre stage.
A strong Nordic presence includes Interboat’s Intender 750, offering unusually generous space thanks to a clever below-deck engine position, while Lowlander’s 851 Speedster focuses on raw performance, hitting impressive speeds that push the tender segment into sport-boat territory.
Heritage design also finds its voice in models such as Ranieri’s Cayman 50.0 Hard Top, or the polyethylene-built Hydra 460 by Roto Nautica, prioritising durability and low maintenance. Meanwhile, Pirelli and SACS Tecnorib celebrate 20 years of collaboration with the striking Pirelli 47—a Maxi-RIB that brings automotive influence into the water.
Electric innovation also stands out, from modular polyethylene constructions to fully electric propulsion concepts. Across the halls, a clear trend emerges: smarter layouts, lighter materials, and more sustainable design principles, without compromising comfort or performance.
With more than a dozen premieres across Hall 3 through Hall 9, this year’s boot Düsseldorf signals a decisive shift: tenders and compact motorboats are no longer support vessels—they are becoming technical showcases in their own right, reshaping expectations across the industry.
