The Australian motor yacht builder Maritimo will make a significant return to the 2026 Auckland Boat Show with two of its latest flagship models, marking one of the strongest displays the brand has brought to New Zealand in years. On the Jellicoe Harbour marina from 5 to 8 March, visitors will find the impressive M75 and M55 Flybridge models in a prime position near the show entrance, represented by Motor Yacht Service Centre, the brand’s authorised Auckland partner.

Motor Yacht Service Centre, based at Hobsonville Marina, has supported Maritimo owners for two decades and only recently stepped into the formal sales consultant role in September 2025. The team, led by Dean and Glynis Ryder alongside their daughter Sophie and son-in-law Shanon Robertson, brings genuine passion for long-range cruising and the particular strengths of Maritimo’s designs for New Zealand waters.

The M75 on display, Illusion, will be open for registered guests to explore the scaled-up proportions and superyacht features that set the flagship apart. With twin MTU V10 1625 horsepower engines, 10,000-litre fuel capacity, and shaft drives, the M75 opens doors to extended Pacific cruising, from Fiji through to the deeper South Pacific. Five M75s currently operate in New Zealand, including Talisman, the very first of the line, which the Motor Yacht Service Centre team supports throughout the Asia-Pacific.

The M55, Maritimo’s best-selling Flybridge model, has earned its reputation through long-range capability and a thoughtfully balanced layout that merges blue-water performance with refined contemporary living. Smaller models like the incoming M50 are also generating interest, particularly among new owners and those looking to downsize without sacrificing luxury.

Motor Yacht Service Centre is capitalising on the momentum by building a new sales and servicing complex at Hobsonville, complete with dedicated berths and covered shed space, expected to open by summer 2026-27. Beyond the show, the Maritimo community will gather at Man O’ War Bay on Waiheke Island for the 2026 Muster, before a fleet of adventurers heads to Fiji in early June, stopping at Minerva Reef for fishing and exploration.
