Stand design tips for the Boat Show
Design for a premium buyer. Yacht buyers compare stands with luxury showrooms, so finishes, furniture and lighting need to feel high-end.
Plan indoor and on-water together. Many exhibitors have a hall stand plus a berth; consistent branding and a lounge to host buyers link the two.
Give space for private talks. Sales and charter discussions are private; a semi-closed lounge works better than an open counter.
Allow for outdoor conditions. Waterfront areas in November still need shade, wind-safe structures and weather-proof graphics.
