The Palm Beach International Boat Show (March 19–23, 2025) isn’t just a maritime event—it’s a convergence of engineering marvels, uncompromising luxury, and collector-grade craftsmanship set against the glittering backdrop of West Palm Beach’s Intracoastal Waterway. For the first time, Westy Sunglasses joins this elite showcase in a Worth Avenue–curated pavilion adjacent to Rolls-Royce’s maritime innovation exhibit, offering eyewear aficionados a rare opportunity to experience the King Collection firsthand.
The Boat Show
With over $1.2 billion in yachts and 800 vessels on display—from Fjord’s 50-knit 39 XP outboard rockets to Feadship’s 229ft JOY—the show transforms Flagler Drive into a floating gallery of nautical ambition. Highlights include:
- Superyacht Show Palm Beach: Private tours of 100ft+ giants like BATON ROUGE (62.5m Icon Yachts masterpiece) and FOX (Pendennis’ 2024 explorer)
- Aquazone Trials: Test-ride tenders equipped with Mercury V10 engines, where polarized clarity isn’t optional—it’s survival
- Worth Avenue Pavilion: A shore-side oasis featuring Hermès’ limited-edition yacht linens, Graff’s nautical diamond suites, and Westy’s titanium eyewear
Westy’s Debut: A Collector’s Moment
At Worth Avenue x Rolls-Royce corridor, the King Collection’s 600 global pairs meet their most discerning audience:
- 45-Degree Gull-Wing Hinge: Demo -forged titanium mechanism and Rolls-Royce’s Bespoke Audio hum
- Maximus Optic Lenses: Compare seascape clarity through Westy’s military-grade polarization
- Witness the origin story—Meet creator Harrison Westwater “This is where obsession becomes ownership,” notes Westy’s founder and lead designer. “When your tender has a six-figure paint job, your sunglasses should demand equal reverence.”
