boatpoint, a leading boat sales company founded by national boating business, boatfolk, will showcase a bumper collection of Nordic and French powerboats at this year’s BoatLife exhibition between 15 to 18 February.
The boatpoint stand will feature this year’s hottest new launches, highly awarded, and soon-to-join the market power boats from a collection of leading Nordic and French brands. Throughout the 4 day show boatpoint will celebrate the unveiling of the Ryds 735VI and Ryds 650VI models as part of a UK premiere for the Ryds brand. These will also be accompanied by the highly celebrated Quarken 27 Cabin, and a pre-launch of the Jeanneau Merry Fisher 795 S2 for boat subscription business, Beyonder.
Made in Sweden, the Ryds 735VI is a 7-metre boat with two berths and a 250 horsepower Yamaha engine, which is capable of speeds of up to 48 knots. Features include a sleek and modern design with a deep V-hull, allowing for smooth and stable navigation through various water conditions.
The Ryds 735VI has a comfortable and ergonomic cockpit area with a wraparound windshield, providing protection from wind and spray. The bow area is equipped with cushioned seating for relaxing and sunbathing and is an ideal choice for groups of up to 6 people looking to enjoy activities in both open and inland water settings.
Phil Jones, Group New Boats Manager at boatpoint, comments, “We have a history of launching new models at boat shows and we feel particularly privileged to host two debuts, a pre-launch, and a newly awarded boat at one event. We are very excited about this year’s show, we look forward to the reactions of those seeing the boats for the first time at BoatLife.”
The Ryds 650VI is a sporty modern-day cruiser. At 6.5 metres, it has maximum speeds ranging between 37 to 48 knots, which makes it perfect for river, lake, and coastal cruising.
Like the Ryds 735VI, the Ryds 650VI features a deep V-hull, and is built with high-quality materials to ensure durability and longevity.
The cockpit area is comfortable and ergonomic with a wraparound windshield, and the bow area can be used for relaxing and sunbathing. The rear seating arrangement can also be converted into a sun pad or additional lounging space for up to 6 people.
The Quarken 27 Cabin is a multi award-winning boat, which enters 2024 with further nominations and awards anticipated. The state-of-the-art design and eye-catching foiled hull with its sophisticated carbon fibre colour, has become a firm favourite of the boating community. At 27.39ft the Quarken 27 Cabin has two berths and space for eight passengers. The 300hp Yamaha engine has a performance that promises speeds of up to 43knotts.
The Jeanneau Merry Fisher 795 S2 will join the Beyonder fleet from spring 2024, as the newest addition to the popular boat subscription range. Comfortable and versatile, the Jeanneau Merry Fisher S2 is cleverly designed for the perfect weekend on the water with family and friends.
Boasting a large forward double berth, it also accommodates two additional guests in the saloon, which transforms into a berth. Equipped with a shower and head compartment, as well as a galley, this model enables you to enjoy breakfast on board and a 360° view of the sea or river, all while sheltered within the well-ventilated saloon.
BoatLife is an annual event held at the Birmingham NEC and is open to the entire boating community. Visitors can explore and discover the latest and most innovative models of boats, along with a wide range of equipment and accessories. The show welcomes a variety of vessels from luxurious powerboats to charming narrowboats, with the inclusion of emerging green technologies, and water sports goods.
The boatpoint new boat sales team and Beyonder subscription team will be at Boatlife between 15th to 18th February 2024. Visitors can find boatpoint at stand C170 where they will be welcome to hop aboard the boats for a private viewing with a dedicated team member. The Ryds vessels will be on show alongside the celebrated Quarken 27 Cabin and the Beyonder Jeanneau Merry Fisher 795 S2 for those looking for sales or subscription services.
