The 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) was one to remember. Despite a rainy start on opening day, this year’s show turned out to be one of the best we’ve had in recent memory, full of energy, great conversations, and incredible interest across our entire lineup.
Each year, FLIBS brings together more than 100,000 boating enthusiasts from around the world, and this year’s crowd did not disappoint. From the moment the gates opened, visitors filled the docks to see what’s new in performance and luxury boating. Even as rain came down on day one, our booth at HI 30–HI 33 was still buzzing. The enthusiasm and curiosity from both new and familiar faces gave us early momentum that carried through the entire week.
We were proud to have our high-performance lineup on display. We included the M3800, C4000, M4200, and our flagship M5200, giving guests a true sense of the range and craftsmanship that define Mystic Powerboats. Each model represents a unique expression of performance and style, from the accessible luxury of the M3800 to the commanding presence of the M5200.
The response was tremendous. The M5200 represents a new class of center console for Mystic with 52 feet of bold design, advanced performance, and uncompromising comfort. Seeing the level of excitement that it generated reaffirmed what we already knew: this model is setting a new standard for luxury and innovation.
Our M4200, the best-selling model in our lineup, once again proved why it’s such a fan favorite. Combining powerful performance with spacious design and refined details, it delivers an on-water experience that’s both thrilling and versatile. The C4000, capable of speeds over 100 mph with just two outboard engines, continues to attract those who crave pure performance. And the M3800, our 38-foot masterpiece of efficiency and luxury, remains the perfect choice for owners who want to be fast, fashionable, and confident in their investment.
Beyond the sales and success stories, what made this FLIBS special was the people. We had the chance to meet so many passionate boaters, longtime fans, repeat owners, and first-time visitors, all eager to share their enthusiasm for what we do. That energy reminds us why we build boats the way we do: with precision, passion, and purpose.
We left Fort Lauderdale feeling inspired, grateful, and more motivated than ever. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our display, stepped aboard, and helped make this year’s show one of our best yet.
