The 2025 Southampton International Boat Show was a truly memorable event for SE Yachts, running from 19- 28 September. Over ten days, we were delighted to welcome hundreds of visitors aboard the boats we had on display – the Arcona 435 Mk II, the Arcona 385, and the début of the Delta 33 Coupé.
The show marked an exciting milestone for Delta Powerboats, with the 33 Coupé making its first appearance in Southampton and the brand being represented at the show for the very first time. We were also very pleased to welcome Artur Alpstål, representing Delta Powerboats and Luksusjaht, where Delta Powerboats are built. His insight and enthusiasm added a special dimension to the event, reflecting the innovation and craftsmanship that define the Delta brand.
Feedback from visitors was exceptional, with many praising not only the boats themselves but also the warm welcome and expertise of the SE Yachts team. Michele Keffen kindly shared her experience after stepping aboard the Arcona 435 Mk II:
“An absolutely fantastic visit to the yachts available for viewing. The staff were knowledgeable, accommodating and welcoming. It was also wonderful to hear the personal sailing experiences of those showing us the yacht. We spoke to more than one staff member and the information regarding the hull was identical – which definitely adds to our confidence. Thank you for being the highlight of an amazing day at the Southampton Boat Show.”
SE Yachts Director Simon Rosier said:
“We are incredibly grateful to the owners who generously allowed us to showcase their boats at the show, and to all our clients and visitors who made the event so enjoyable. The level of interest has been outstanding, with strong sales enquiries across all three models shown and the wider range – a real sign of confidence in both Arcona and Delta in the UK market. It was particularly exciting to mark the Southampton Boat Show with the début of the Delta 33 Coupé, and to have Delta Powerboats represented on display here for the very first time. A huge thank you also goes to the SE Yachts team for their commitment and energy throughout the ten days, to the show organisers for staging such a well-run event, and to our suppliers and partners working tirelessly behind the scenes – it really does take a village to make a show like this happen.”
With new connections made, strong sales interest, and a successful début for the Delta 33 Coupé, the SE Yachts team leave Southampton inspired and looking forward to the year ahead.
