All about: Miami International Boat Show 2026

We had the opportunity to discover the brand-new Balance 502 in a world premiere at the Miami International Boat Show (MIBS) and to sail on board it off the coast of Key Biscay to reach Fort Lauderdale. This new model from Balance Catamarans is taking over from the 482.

The 2026 international boat show season kicked off with the Düsseldorf Boat Show, the largest indoor boat show. Now it's time for MIBS – as it's known among regulars!
