Electric propulsion no longer waits on the horizon—it’s already sailing into the harbors of Europe’s most prestigious exhibitions. Each event becomes an opportunity to show what marine innovation looks like in action. Not from the shore, but from the helm.
As you glide quietly into port—whether on the Alpha, Sigma, or Omega—you’re not simply docking a boat. You’re revealing a complete electric system, built around real-time intelligence, fleet-level awareness, and performance that adapts to the environment around you.
Across Germany, France, and the Netherlands, these exhibitions aren’t just stages. They are proving grounds. And your Helios vessel, powered by our Marine Battery Systems, guided by Helios Marine Link, and supported by the Fleet Link, doesn’t just meet expectations—it redefines them.
Boot Düsseldorf – Germany | January 17–25, 2025
Spanning 16 exhibition halls and drawing over 200,000 visitors annually, Boot Düsseldorf remains the world’s most influential indoor boat show. It’s where the entire maritime industry sets its tone for the year ahead. But in 2026, sustainability isn’t just one of many themes—it’s the main event.
Electric and hybrid propulsion technologies now dominate entire sections of the show, with an emphasis on integration, intelligence, and decarbonization. Here, innovation must speak not only through design, but through data.
Approaching the marina aboard a Helios vessel is a statement on its own. The boat’s real-time performance is monitored and adjusted through the onboard Helios Marine Link system, which reacts to marine traffic, ambient air pressure, and propulsion load. The transition from open water to marina slip feels coordinated—not because someone gave orders, but because the vessel already understood the variables.
Once docked, conversations unfold not only around your hull but around the boat’s awareness—its ability to read its environment, balance energy use, and communicate status continuously. This is what Boot Düsseldorf is known for: ideas that work.
Cannes Yachting Festival – France | September 9–14, 2025
The Cannes Yachting Festival is where form meets finesse. Held across two of the French Riviera’s most iconic ports—Vieux Port and Port Canto—it draws the world’s most discerning yacht enthusiasts. While this event celebrates beauty and scale, it has also leaned into environmental leadership in recent years.
The festival’s Green Route highlights builders who embrace sustainable materials, silent propulsion, and smarter onboard systems. When you arrive with your Helios boat, you join this growing segment that understands sustainability is not a trade-off—it’s an upgrade.
Onlookers may first notice the vessel’s silence as it docks. But conversations quickly shift to what lies within. The Helios Marine Link isn’t just monitoring propulsion—it’s tracking wind changes along the coastline, measuring sea depth, and optimizing your route. For operators presenting Helios boats to potential charter clients, the presence of the Helios Fleet Link offers something rare: full oversight. From usage hours to system alerts, every detail is accessible—not in a logbook, but in a dashboard.
In Cannes, elegance is assumed. Intelligence is admired. And with Helios, you deliver both.
METSTRADE – Netherlands | November 18–20, 2025
Technical, focused, and forward-thinking, METSTRADE in Amsterdam isn’t about glamour—it’s about grit. This is where engineers, system architects, and commercial operators go to talk about what truly drives marine performance.
In the narrow waterways of Amsterdam, precision matters. As you guide your Helios boat beneath bridges and through locks, your course subtly adjusts to accommodate wind gusts and shallow canal floors—inputs fed into the Helios Marine Link interface and interpreted instantly.
Inside the RAI convention center, conversations revolve around emissions tracking, usage optimization, and modular electric propulsion. But outside, your boat is already collecting those metrics. With the Helios Fleet Link continuously logging movement, CO₂ savings, and hours run, your presence becomes a real-world example of the data streams others are only beginning to imagine.
METSTRADE respects one thing above all: what works. A Helios boat, quietly operating just outside the conference doors, proves that the future of boating isn’t just elegant or efficient. It’s operational.
Grand Pavois La Rochelle – France| September 23–28, 2025
Focused exclusively on sustainable marine innovation, the Grand Pavois La Rochelle has become one of the most significant events for electric and zero-emission vessels in Europe. Held along the Bay of Biscay, this event strips away excess and puts the spotlight on clean technology, efficient performance, and real-time data insights.
Arriving at this show aboard a Helios boat immediately places you among the serious contributors to next-generation yachting. The boat’s propulsion adjusts dynamically, drawing on the insights from the Electric Propulsion and IoT Package. As you maneuver through the harbor, the system reads environmental conditions and balances output for optimal efficiency, without compromising responsiveness.
Here, visitors don’t just want to see polished decks or premium upholstery. They want transparency. Your Helios vessel delivers it, recording every nautical mile, adjusting for external variables, and delivering reports via the Helios Fleet Link that showcase energy savings, maintenance insights, and CO₂ offsets. At the Grand Pavois La Rochelle, performance is measured by numbers as much as impressions. With Helios, you bring both.
A Helios Boat for Every Show
Each Helios boat brings something distinct to the water—but every model operates under the same principle: quiet power, intelligent control, and integrated sustainability.
The Omegaoffers flexibility. Whether used for private exhibition demos or light charter interest, it’s built to perform across a wide range of water types. Its systems stay active in the background, adjusting power, collecting insights, and making mid-sized excellence look flawless.
Perfect for cities and close quarters, the Sigmahandles like a natural extension of its captain. Compact and responsive, it performs with poise at events like METSTRADE, where every movement is watched—and measured.
The Alphais made for the Riviera. Refined yet deeply connected, it welcomes conversations at Cannes that begin on deck and end on screen—inside the intuitive dashboards that show real-time performance data, maintenance status, and location tracking.
Dock Like You Belong with Helios Marine
Across Europe, 2025’s exhibitions will define the next era of yachting. Each boat carries more than passengers. It carries insight. Each system does more than function. It thinks. When you dock, it won’t be just for show. It will be to display what marine excellence really means in 2025.
