Newport International Boat Show

The Newport International Boat Show (NIBS), one of the largest and most prestigious boat shows in the country, spans over thirteen acres of historic downtown Newport, Rhode Island.
Walk the docks and view a spectacular display of shiny new sailboats and powerboats, some making their first-ever debut in the United States. On the land side, you’ll find hundreds of marine products, services, and accessories to enhance the boating lifestyle. Also on deck are educational seminars, in-water boating courses, and daily giveaways.

The Boat Show’s September dates and stunning location are added benefits to your visit. Set amongst grand coastal scenery, national historic sites, trendy boutiques, and world-class restaurants, it’s easy to pair your passion for boating with the experience of Newport and the beauty of fall in New England.

Join our Hylas Team at one of the premier shows of the season! This year we will be showcasing the new Hylas H57, marking the yacht's first-ever boat show debut. Private tours and demonstration sails are available.

On Display: The New Hylas H57

Designed by Bill Dixon of Dixon Yacht Design, the Hylas H57 is the newest member of the Hylas Yachts Sailing fleet. It has several desirable features including the carbon-reinforced arch, Solent rig, and german sheeting system. The H57 can be upgraded and customized in just about every way possible - from an optional hydraulic swim platform to solar arrays and a state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery system.
