Yamaha Marine UK set for Southampton International Boat Show

Yamaha Marine UK will return to the Southampton International Boat Show (18-27 September) with an exciting line-up of new boat debuts, innovative marine technology, and a comprehensive display of Yamaha products, highlighting the strength of its partnerships with leading boat builders across the industry. 

At the event, the Yamaha team will also be holding live demonstrations of the Helm Master EX Wireless Controller Station onboard a Jeanneau 9 Cap Camarat WA.

Making its show debut at berth M038, will be the Yamarin Aura Cabin, following its launch earlier this year. Yamarin’s latest flagship model – a 34ft premium pilothouse boat, combines top-tier performance, timeless Nordic design and year-round usability.  Powered by twin Yamaha F250, F300, or F350 outboards, the Aura Cabin combines confident, precise handling with exceptional ride quality, refined onboard acoustics, and renowned reliability.

Other debuts at the show feature the Sterk 26, a stylish new-generation performance weekender, demonstrating how Yamaha power perfectly complements modern, performance-focused boat design (Berth M138). Plus, the Orkney 592 Vanguard Design, which combines Orkney’s reputation for practical, seaworthy craft with Yamaha’s renowned reliability and efficiency (Berth M035).

While the Olympic 30SR RIB brings together striking design, exceptional versatility and Yamaha performance, making it an ideal platform for family adventures, watersports and coastal exploration (Berth M037).

Visitors can also enjoy exclusive demonstrations of the Helm Master EX Wireless Controller Station aboard a Jeanneau’s 9 Cap Camarat WA model with twin F250 engines at berth number M042.  The Wireless Controller Station allows the captain to manoeuvre the boat from anywhere onboard, not just whilst at the helm, giving flexibility whilst still monitoring depth, heading and speed via a simple handheld display. Other functions include man overboard alerts activated via tags worn by the captain and each crew member (of which there are 8), the ability to set Autopilot and the useful Staypoint®, Fishpoint® and Driftpoint® at the touch of a button.

Visitors to Yamaha berths M035 – M042, M138 & M139 will also get the chance to see a range of marine solutions up close, powered by cutting-edge Yamaha engine technology, including:

  • Sealegs 7.5m Sport RIB (Berth M035 – demo & M036)
  • Yamarin 80 DC (Berth M039)
  • Yamarin 67 DC (Berth M040)
  • Ballistic XP80 RIB (Berth M041)
  • Sterk 31 (Berth M139)

In addition, Yamaha Motor UK’s land stand (P24) will feature supporting dealers from the South Coast, Hayling Jetsport Performance and The Outboard Centre, who will be on hand throughout the show, providing expert advice and product information. Plus, visitors will get the opportunity to view Yamaha’s Limited Edition 70th anniversary SuperJet WaveRunner up close and meet YouTubes watersports personality Joe Hill, of Classic Jetskis. Yamaha’s land stand will also display a range of WaveRunners, outboard engines, Torqeedo solutions, and YAM inflatables.

Jonny Twelvetrees, Marine Sales Manager at Yamaha Motor UK, says: “SIBS 2026 is set to be another exciting one for Yamaha. We can’t wait to present the Yamarin Aura at the event.  As the UK’s flagship boating festival, SIBS provides the perfect opportunity to showcase the new design and demonstrate Yamarin’s long-standing commitment to creating boats that perform exceptionally – without compromise.

“We’ll also be demonstrating the state-of-the-art Helm Master EX Wireless Controller Station, following the positive response we received at last years’ event, where the innovation made its debut. As always, we’re looking forward to connecting with our valued partners, customers, and marine enthusiasts at this global event.”

A range of Yamaha partners will also be showcasing industry-leading solutions at the event, including, Silver Boats, Whaly Boats, Swallow Yachts, Saltwater Solutions, MCC Marine, Rodman, Grand Boats, Sea Ventures, plus many more.
