This will also be evident at its 61st edition from 17 to 25 September 2022. The international water sports exhibition on Lake Constance aims to arouse emotions and encourage participation: in the Interboot harbour on Lake Constance (test drives by appointment and sports programme), on the exhibition lake next to the exhibition halls (taster sessions and demonstrations), on the outdoor area between the halls (trailer training), but also inside the exhibition halls (SUP test pool, standing wave).
Personalised cruise advice (booking an appointment on the Interboot website is recommended), exciting and practice-oriented presentations on various stages and the Interboot Academy (seminars and workshops, booking in the online ticket shop) are no less an integral part of Interboot.
The trade fair in the border triangle of Germany, Austria and Switzerland is also still well positioned in its eponymous core area. This is ensured by regular German exhibitors such as Boote Pfister from Schwebheim, Europe Marine from Budenheim, Boots-Center Fröhlich from Lindau (celebrating its 50th anniversary this year) and many others, as well as Swiss shipyards and dealers, who will also be exhibiting together in Hall B1 under the "Suisse@Interboot" banner in 2022.
The innovations at Interboot 2022:
More exciting premieres
A premiere of a special kind: the Cobalt (CS23 and R30) and Grandezza (25 S, 28, DC and 34 OC) brands will no longer be exhibited at Interboot by Brunnert-Grimm AG, but by KIBAG Marina, which has become the largest player in the nautical industry in Switzerland by taking over the Gottlieben-based company, which has been family-run for more than 100 years. Since the change of ownership, the marina and boatyard at Espenstrasse 9 have been operating under the name Marina Gottlieben. This means that a total of five marinas (three on Lake Zurich, one on Lake Zug and one on Lake Constance) and two shipyards are now united under the umbrella of KIBAG Holding. Stand 100 in the Swiss Hall B1 will therefore be 120 square metres larger than last year. The premiere of the twin-engined Finnmaster T9 will also be celebrated there.
W.A.R. Bootsbau & Bootshandel from Adligenswil near Lucerne announces a Swedish world premiere: Candela C-8. In addition, W.A.R. and its sub-exhibitors Portier, Faul and Nasbo as well as the German and Austrian importers will be presenting the full range of the European Sea Ray range, including a new cockpit layout for the Sun Sport series. In addition to the two new models - 710 Sunsport and Sunski 625 - a restored Boesch 650 will be on display at the Boesch Motorboote AG stand.
Interboot brings together sustainable projects for the water sports of the future in a "Green Area" in Hall B3. These include solar systems from the Kiel-based company FLIN solar, which are designed to make both sailing yachts and motorboats more self-sufficient. Alveus Bootsbau from Potsdam is coming to the Swabian Sea with the "d'Ampère". A 6.63 m long and 2 m wide Drascombe hull built in 1992 in England, which the two boat builders Hilmar Dembler-Malik and Fritz Müller - as the boat's name suggests - have converted into a solar boat, motorised with a Torqeedo Cruise 2.0. With Elwood Boats and Vendia Woods, two Finnish companies are also showing the results of their ideas on climate-friendly boat building.
Extensive supporting programme
At the 61st Interboot, not only will the exhibition lake return to the programme as a testing ground, but above all the Interboot harbour on Lake Constance. Not forgetting the worlds of experience in the halls: The Interboot Surf Days (standing wave) will be making a comeback, as will the SUP Team Challenge. As in 2021: trailer training (www.interboot.de/trailertraining) and the Interboot Academy with exciting lectures, workshops and seminars (www.interboot.de/academy).
Delius Klasing Verlag with the magazines BOOTE and YACHT is looking forward to your visit in the centre of Hall A4, Stand 405.
