Electric Boats at the 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show

The 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), running October 29 – November 2, showcases the latest innovations in boating, and this year’s spotlight is on electrification. As the world’s largest in-water boat show, FLIBS 2025 brings together the marine industry’s most forward-thinking brands and innovators, driving the shift toward sustainable boating.

Featured Electric Boats

Vision Marine Technologies

Vision Marine returns to FLIBS 2025 with their high-voltage E-Motion™ 180E system as the official electric shuttle fleet for the event. This hands-on experience gives visitors an opportunity to feel the difference of all-electric performance firsthand while being transported between key show locations.

At the Nautical Ventures AquaZone, Vision Marine will debut the Sterk 31E, featuring dual E-Motion 180E integration, which showcases top-tier electric speed and range.

Navier

Known for its sleek, hydrofoiling designs, Navier pushes efficiency to the extreme. The company’s flagship model, the N30, lifts above the water’s surface, reducing drag and energy consumption by up to 80 percent compared to conventional hulls.

Navier’s innovation represents more than just a new powertrain; it’s a complete re-engineering of the boating experience, combining speed, silence, and stability. At FLIBS, Navier continues to capture attention as a symbol of what’s possible when design meets sustainability.

Silent Yachts

Pioneers in solar-electric luxury, Silent Yachts will be presenting the Silent 62 3-Deck Open. Known as the creators of the world’s first series-produced solar-powered yachts, Silent combines elegance with long-range, zero-emission capability. For luxury buyers and charter operators, Silent Yachts offers a glimpse of sustainable luxury.

Vessev

The New Zealand-based startup Vessev is redefining passenger transport with its VS-9, an all-electric hydrofoiling vessel engineered for hospitality, tourism, and waterfront mobility.

Its near-silent operation and smooth, elevated ride make it ideal for resorts, eco-tourism operators, and coastal cities looking to integrate sustainable transportation on the water. With partnerships forming across the Pacific and beyond, Vessev represents the next frontier in electric marine mobility.

Flux Marine / Scout Boats

Flux Marine, known for its high-performance electric outboard systems, continues to expand its collaborations with leading boatbuilders, including Scout Boats. Both companies are expected to showcase their joint advancements during the boat show that blend power, innovation, and improved design.

The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show highlights just how far the electric boating movement has come, and where it’s headed next. With leaders like Vision Marine, Navier, Silent Yachts, Vessev, and Flux Marine setting new benchmarks in performance and design, the industry is entering a pivotal moment. 

As infrastructure expands and OEMs refine efficiency and range, electric boats are evolving from concept to mainstream reality. For marinas, charter fleets, and private owners, this marks a new era of innovation on the water. For hospitality, tourism, and waterfront destinations, it’s an opportunity to create elevated, zero-emission experiences that seamlessly blend luxury, sustainability, and connection.
