The festival wasn’t just about numbers — it was also about innovation, experience, and global interest.
The Singapore Yachting Festival 2025 wrapped up in style at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove, running from 10 to 13 April. Despite the wet weather, the event welcomed over 12,000 visitors, showing just how much love there is for the world of yachting. This year’s edition was bigger and better than ever, with more than 100 participating brands — including over 20 making their debut at the show. On display were 70 yachts, including 10 premieres, two global debuts, and 15 yachts longer than 24 metres.
The festival wasn’t just about numbers — it was also about innovation, experience, and global interest. Arthur Tay, Chairman & CEO of SUTL Group and ONE°15 Marina, expressed how proud the team was of the turnout and the event’s success. He said, “The response to SYF 2025 has been overwhelmingly positive, with visitors, exhibitors, and partners praising the curated experiences, innovative concepts, and range of yachts. It’s a strong affirmation of Singapore’s growing stature as Asia’s premier yachting hub. As the organiser, we’re proud to witness the continued expansion in both scale and impact, and we remain committed to raising the bar with each edition—delivering deeper engagement, stronger sustainability efforts, and broader global partnerships.”
The largest yacht at the festival was the 56-metre Charley 2 by Echo Yachts, capturing attention with its sheer size and design. The event also featured several exciting debuts. The Azimut Seadeck 7 by Azimut|Benetti Group stood out with its eco-conscious design, built to reduce emissions by up to 40 percent. Ferretti Group introduced the Wallywhy150, known for its 270-degree wrap-around view and luxurious main-deck master cabin. Gulf Craft’s Nomad 101, made for long-range cruising with a 1,000 nautical mile range, also drew significant interest.
Among the other highlights, DCH Marine presented the Sunseeker 90 Ocean, offering a 30 percent increase in deck space and a unique Beach Club feature. Cayago Luxury Sea Toys showcased their F9 Seabob models for the first time in Asia, and Camper & Nicholsons introduced “Song of Songs,” a 42.2-metre charter yacht built by Heysea. The Bluegame BGM75, a 22.5-metre power catamaran represented by Simpson Marine, made its Asia-Pacific debut.
This year’s event clearly confirmed Singapore’s rising position as a global yachting destination. With a mix of impressive boats, innovative technologies, and international attention, the Singapore Yachting Festival 2025 set a new standard for marine showcases in Asia. And if this year is anything to go by, the future of yachting in Singapore looks brighter — and bigger — than ever.
