With bumper crowds and a packed entertainment schedule, the 2020 edition of the Thailand Yacht Show was a major success with 90 international brands and a dozen regional and worldwide yacht premieres over the four days.
The exhibitor line-up was at an all-time high from a diverse list of industries, including marine leisure, high-end property developers, leading names in the automotive industry, luxury jewellery, hospitality and food and beverages. A healthy mix of high-net-worth buyers, sellers and aspiring yacht owners with an appetite to spend flocked to the docks where a number of the exhibitors recorded impressive boat sales.
Celebrating its sixth edition in 2022, the Thailand Yacht Show has firmly established itself as not only one of the leading maritime shows in South East Asia, but also as a must-visit event for those who call Phuket home. The Show, with the stunning Royal Phuket Marina as its backdrop, offers both industry professionals and local residents the perfect environment to network, relax with friends – or close a deal – surrounded by some of the most beautiful motor- and sailing-yachts in the region.

Howard Prime

“TYS Pattaya is the first show we’ve done since Covid, so these are very exciting times for us. We have on display a Fairline Squadron 68, which is a premier in Thailand for Asia and the Aquila 28 Sports Fishing yacht, again another Thailand Premier for the show. On the first day we sold a Lagoon 51, another Asia Premier in Thailand, for delivery in December.”

“V Yachts Asia is the exclusive dealer for Ferretti, Riva and Pershing brands. We have on display the Riva 76, which is the very first model in Thailand, and the Ferretti 500, which is another yacht being shown for the first time in Thailand at the TYS. We have already sold 2 yachts so far and this is the first time we have been able to do this at any show.”
Thana Jongsubthum
, Azimut Yachts
“We don’t have a boat here at the show because the demand has been so high we’ve sold all our stock! Covid has made our sales triple. It’s very important to be part of TYS to promote our brands, including our new brand Chris Craft, and to get new prospects.”
Benjamin Tabuteau

"It was good to come back to a yacht show, and see everyone from the industry again, all in the same place together. It's exciting to come out of the pandemic sprinting - not just us but everybody else as well. We're looking forward to more shows and more activity in the future. I think everyone is dying to get back out there... "
