From February 2 to 4, 2027, Hangar 14 in Bordeaux will host the second edition of Nauti Pro, a B2B trade show dedicated to equipment manufacturers and suppliers in the marine industry. Following a successful inaugural edition that brought together manufacturers, distributors, shipyards, marinas, and specialized service providers, the event continues to grow with an expanded exhibition space and a program more focused on professional networking.
Exhibition capacity is growing rapidly
The main change concerns the exhibition?s capacity. While the first edition featured 70 exhibition booths, Nauti Pro 2027 already has 101 as of today.
This increase of more than 44% reflects the growing interest among industry players in an event entirely dedicated to marine equipment. Onboard electronics, onboard power systems, marine hardware, safety, engines, maintenance, paint, comfort, and interior design are among the sectors represented.
This growing popularity is also reflected in exceptionally high occupancy rates. The organizers report that only about ten booths remain available. Since the trade show has now reached its maximum capacity in Hangar 14, no further expansion will be possible for the 2027 edition.
For companies interested in exhibiting, the remaining spots are the last chance to join this second edition.
AD Nautic, Big Ship, and BoatSpot are merging their networks
Another notable development is that several major marine retail chains will be using the show as an opportunity to hold their annual seminars. AD Nautic, BoatSpot, and Big Ship will be bringing their members and partners together in Bordeaux. Big Ship, which was already present at the first edition, is renewing its support for the event. The French and Spanish networks will be represented.
For equipment manufacturers, this gathering of distributors provides a significant business opportunity. In just a few days, exhibitors can meet with store managers, buyers, network executives, and industry influencers.
This second edition also marks a more international focus, with the announced participation of German and Spanish exhibitors?a sign of the growing interest in this trade event.
More than 2,000 trade visitors are expected
The organizers expect more than 2,000 trade visitors from the boating industry over the three days of the show. In addition to dealers, rental companies, repair shops, and marina operators, Nauti Pro aims to increase its visibility among design firms, purchasing managers, and project managers at boatbuilding yards.
For these professionals, the trade show is of particular interest. It provides an opportunity to meet, all in one place, the full range of suppliers, manufacturers, and technical partners involved in the design, outfitting, or maintenance of boats.
Nauti Pro remains exclusively a B2B platform. Access is limited to professionals in the recreational boating industry, including boat builders, repair shops, rental companies, sailmakers, mechanics, marine equipment suppliers, design firms, and port operators.
The last few spots before registration closes
While the sale of exhibition space is now well underway, the organizers confirm that about ten spots remain available. For manufacturers, distributors, and service providers wishing to showcase their products to an exclusively professional audience, these remaining spots represent the last opportunity to participate in the 2027 edition.
With 101 exhibition booths already sold, the participation of the AD Nautic, Big Ship, and BoatSpot networks, exhibitors from several European countries, and more than 2,000 trade visitors expected, Nauti Pro 2027 is reaching a new milestone. The show thus confirms its place on the calendar of professional events in the recreational boating industry and continues its mission to bring together the entire chain of marine equipment manufacturers and suppliers in Bordeaux.
