From February 24th to 25th, a 'Discovery Weekend' was organized by our respected dealer in Australia, Spirit Marine. The event took place at their marina in Hope Island, Queensland.

This event turned out to be a great success, offering visitors chances to explore and engage a vast range of vessels including Beneteau's Antares and Flyer powerboats, as well as First sailboat.

The popular Antares 11 was included in the display lineup. She is a wonderful family cruising powerboat focusing on comfort and space, as well as safety and innovation. She can be used for multiple boating programs, making her ideal for a wide range of fun and leisure activities!
