Marine Group The Marine Group consists of two divisions: Show Management and YACHTS International magazine. The Marine Group's flagship event, the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, is the largest boat show in the world and has an economic impact of over $600 million to the South Florida economy. The show attracts close to 125,000 people annually and features more than 1,300 exhibiting companies. YACHTS International magazine is targeted to owners of yachts that exceed 80 feet. Typically, vessels of this caliber can range in price from $2 million to more than $100 million, and their owners are among the most affluent individuals in the United States and the world.
Show Management For the past 30 years, Show Management has been a world leader in boat show production. The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the Yacht & Brokerage Show in Miami Beach, and the Palm Beach International Boat Show are now three of the world's largest and most important in-water boat shows. Two regional shows, the St. Petersburg Power & Sailboat Show and Sarasota’s Suncoast Boat Show, are the Gulf Coast's largest in-water boat shows. Each event offers in-water displays, standard booths, customized tents, and barges. Show Management produces a fun, clean and competitive atmosphere for all things marine. >> Find Out More!

Prior to joining the AIM group, YACHTS International Magazine had a longstanding partnership with Show Management and has maintained a strong presence at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the Yacht & Brokerage Show in Miami Beach, and the Palm Beach International Boat Shows for many years. In 2001, the magazine began a VIP members-only membership club available during major international boat shows. The "Pavilion" is open during each of the Florida boat shows, offering its members an opportunity to network in a casual and comfortable setting. The magazine extends Pavilion membership to qualified yacht owners and advertisers. YACHTS International, working closely in collaboration with other yacht titles around the world, is committed to delivering readers the best in engaging editorial content, captivating photography, and cutting-edge design, and has set new standards in American publishing excellence. In 2009 the magazine introduced a well-received digital edition with interactive features that complement the glossy paper edition. >> Find Out More!
