The Lantau Yacht Club Boat Show \u2013 Festa Nautica 2026 ended in Discovery Bay on 8 November. The three-day event brought together 30 international and mainland Chinese yachts and introduced a Zhuhai showcase. Alongside boats at the pontoons, the programme included XPENG\u2019s Land Aircraft Carrier flying-car display, Rolls-Royce and marine technology. Hong Kong 01\u2019s on-site report<\/a> and Ta Kung Pao\u2019s 7 November report<\/a> documented these marine and shoreside exhibits.<\/p>

Sunseeker, Saxdor and Zeepaard on the pontoons<\/h2>

Photographs from this year\u2019s show depict yachts lined along the pontoons, where visitors could look closely at aft decks, cockpits and different layouts. The Sunseeker and Saxdor display combined larger motor yachts with smaller sports boats, offering a different appearance from the nearby catamarans.<\/p>

DCH Marine\u2019s event announcement<\/a> listed the Sunseeker 76 Yacht, 82 Ocean Enclosed and Saxdor 320 GTO, alongside a Saxdor 400 GTC shuttle experience. Azimut\u2019s official event page<\/a> named the Fly 62, Fly 78 and Magellano 60, connecting the brands at the show with identifiable models.<\/p>

Zeepaard is another yacht identifiable in the on-site photographs: its name and the Camper & Nicholsons banner beside its deck are clearly visible. The company\u2019s official event page<\/a> listed Zeepaard and Vero as yachts on display. Zeepaard\u2019s raised bow and prominent mast give it a distinct appearance among the more streamlined motor yachts.<\/p>

Zhuhai showcase: nine yachts and eight technical booths<\/h2>

Ta Kung Pao\u2019s on-site report<\/a> counted nine yachts and eight specialist technical booths in the new Zhuhai showcase, covering marine equipment, bespoke lighting and marina engineering. DotDotNews photographs published on 6 November<\/a> show Zhuhai yacht association flags beside the vessels, putting a visible face to the Greater Bay Area exhibitors.<\/p>

The showcase extended from complete boats to onboard equipment and marina services. Ta Kung Pao interviewed<\/a> Cao Xiaoshuai, CEO of Zhuhai Anjie Marine Equipment, who said the company received enquiries from more than ten overseas and Hong Kong yacht owners on the first day, illustrating the range of customers exhibitors were meeting.<\/p>

The photographs also record a yellow sports-car-shaped boat among the larger yachts: a low nose, windscreen and open seating positioned alongside other small motorboats. It brought automotive styling onto the water, presenting a very different sight from the large flybridge yachts.<\/p>

Humanoid robots at the marina<\/h2>

The marina also hosted a robot display. Photographs from this year\u2019s event show three humanoid robots on a pontoon beside the yachts, bringing technology exhibits into the boat-show setting.<\/p>

XPENG flying-car display, Rolls-Royce and shoreside attractions<\/h2>

The show extended beyond the pontoons. Hong Kong 01\u2019s on-site report<\/a> recorded XPENG\u2019s Land Aircraft Carrier flying-car display and a DJI drone challenge, alongside a Rolls-Royce flagship model, Jacob & Co. watches and limited-edition motorcycles ashore.<\/p>

This year\u2019s on-site photographs also provide a closer look at the XPENG exhibits: a silver six-wheel land vehicle and a multi-rotor aircraft were displayed separately. The aircraft was shown statically on the lawn, where visitors could inspect its cabin and rotor layout.<\/p>

These exhibits broadened the visit from the marina to the shoreside venue. The organiser\u2019s programme, published by the Asia-Pacific Superyacht Association<\/a>, also listed a 2008 MV Agusta Brutale 910R Wally motorcycle, a marine-debris art project by MeART with artist Nissa Kauppila, Feather & Bone culinary experiences and live jazz.<\/p>

After the show: next year\u2019s partnership and shore access<\/h2>

This edition partnered with The Festival of Connoisseurs, linking the 4\u20136 November AsiaWorld-Expo exhibition with the 6\u20138 November marina programme. Ta Kung Pao quoted<\/a> organiser representative Franklin Mak as saying that cooperation with Informa would continue next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
