The 54th annual Newport International Boat Show (NIBS) is set to take place September 11–14, 2025, at the Newport Yachting Center and across multiple interconnected sites in historic downtown Newport, Rhode Island. Set against Newport’s iconic coastal scenery—with historic sites, boutique shopping, and top eateries nearby—the show offers an immersive fall experience that blends boating passion with New England charm.

United Yacht Sales broker and Brand Manager Aaron Leatherwood will have the new Aquitalia 78 Fly on display at the Newport Show. Stay tuned for the exact Dock and Slip Number of where the 78 Fly will be located.

“From the moment you step into the salon, the 78 surrounds you with a tactile sense of refinement.” – Yachting Magazine (June, 2025)

“One of Aquitalia’s standout strengths is their flexibility,” said Aaron.  “This is a semi-custom builder that truly listens to the client. Owners can request lighter or darker woods, different upholstery colors, tailored galley layouts, or reconfigured seating areas. The 78 becomes an extension of the owner’s lifestyle, not just a yacht—but a curated living space.”
