The Yacht Sales Co. is set to host the 2026 Gold Coast Open Day on Saturday, 7 November, at The Boat Works, featuring a remarkable collection of premium pre-owned yachts. The event will run from 9am to 3pm, offering visitors the opportunity to explore an impressive range of sailing yachts and power catamarans, displayed both on the water and at a dedicated hardstand exhibition.
Attendees can expect to see yachts from leading international brands such as ILIAD Catamarans, Moody, Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, and Dufour Yachts, with the final line-up to be confirmed closer to the event. The hardstand display will highlight various pre-owned yachts from Schionning, Lightwave, Lagoon, Leopard, and Perry, catering to diverse cruising preferences and budgets.
Patrick Gilot, General Manager – Pre-Owned Sales, emphasised the event’s value for prospective buyers and enthusiasts: “There is no better way to appreciate a yacht than to step aboard, experience the layout and speak directly with people who understand the different models and their capabilities.”
The Boat Works owner, Tony Longhurst, expressed pride in hosting the annual event, highlighting its role in bringing boat buyers and enthusiasts together.
Beyond the yacht displays, attendees can enjoy the excellent facilities of The Boat Works, which includes a variety of marine services, waterfront dining options, and recreational amenities. Popular dining spots like The Galley, Kokomo Kitchen & Bar, and Espresso Twenty5 Café will provide a great atmosphere throughout the day.
Additionally, Garage 25, featuring a private collection of vintage and classic race cars, will be open for viewing, adding to the day’s attractions.
