Interboat and Corsiva take centre stage as Val Wyatt sails into Southampton
Our beautiful marina is thriving as boaters and their families take advantage of this glorious summer, which is set to continue over the coming weeks. If this extended period of sunny weather has whetted your own appetite to get out onto the water before the end of the 2026 season, you can view both our new and used boats for sale on our website.
If you’re now looking ahead to 2027 and want to explore the different options available to you, you’ll be pleased to hear the Val Wyatt team will once again be returning to the Southampton International Boat Show this September. It is the perfect opportunity to take a closer look at some of our beautiful boats from Interboat and Corsiva, while asking our team of experts any questions you may have.
The Southampton International Boat Show, which is the UK’s flagship boating and watersports festival, runs from 18-27 September at Mayflower Park. Across the ten days, we will be located on marina berths M112, M113 and M114. Our team is nicely situated as you walk down the eastern bridge from Mayflower Park onto the marina pontoons.
Interboat 19
We are excited to be bringing back a tried, tested and still very much in-demand classic day boat for this year’s show – the elegant Interboat 19. It is one of our most popular models, particularly with boaters who enjoy relaxing day trips with friends and family. This beautifully specified stock boat benefits from an upgraded 27hp inboard engine, leading to effortless cruising and exceptional manoeuvrability. It is well worth a closer look.
Interboat Intender 750
We will also be taking the award-winning Interboat Intender 750 to Southampton this year, which is the latest addition to the Interboat range. It was named Open Motorboat of the Year at last year’s HISWA Boat of the Year Awards, and for good reason.
The Intender 750 has been designed with space and comfort in mind. Its engine sits beneath the deck, which opens up the cockpit. Instead of a central engine box, you’ll find a clean, open space with just a slim steering console, which allows for more room for entertaining. From the generous swimming platform, a walkway leads alongside the aft sunbed. In the main cockpit, passengers can relax in an elevated seating position while enjoying uninterrupted views across the water.
The display model has a striking Ice White hull with a Grey Tweed canopy. It comes complete with a toilet, console fridge, bow thruster, sink, and teak effect decking.
Corsiva 800 Tender
Corsiva’s latest model will also be heading to the south coast this autumn. The Corsiva 800 Tender perfectly combines style, comfort and performance. Visitors to the show will be able to get a first-hand look at this exceptional boat, which includes a bow thruster, fridge, pump-flush toilet and a 60hp outboard engine. It is the largest tender in the Corsiva range to date, measuring 7.5 metres in length. This boat is currently available for early viewing at our marina in Wargrave.
Meaningful conversations in Southampton
Lisa Anacora, Managing Director at Val Wyatt, said: “The Southampton International Boat Show is one of the most anticipated events in our calendar. As the busy summer season draws to a close, it is the perfect moment to sit down with people at every stage of their boating journey – from those taking their very first look, to owners ready for their next boat. What matters most to us is the experience we provide. We pride ourselves on taking the time to understand what each person is looking for, answering every question honestly, and guiding them through the process without any pressure. Our team will be on hand throughout the ten days, and we look forward to seeing you.”
Autumn is always a fantastic time to buy a boat or upgrade your current model. As well as beating the traditional spring rush, you get the opportunity to secure priority build slots, as well as getting the time to prepare at your own pace. If you’re in the market for a used boat for sale, it is also a good time to discover some pre-owned gems. You can book your tickets for the Southampton International Boat Show here.
