One of the most anticipated arrivals at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) is a new luxury power catamaran. The Veya 53 will make its North American premiere at FLIBS, taking place October 28 to November 1, 2026.
Meet Veya Yachts
Veya Yachts is a joint venture between French catamaran specialist Fountaine Pajot, with over four decades of multihull expertise, and Couach, a yacht builder with more than a century of heritage. Together, the two brands have set out to blend the space and comfort of a catamaran with the polish of a premium yacht.
The Veya 53 made its debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September. FLIBS will be the first appearance in front of a North American audience.
What Makes the Veya 53 Stand Out
The Veya 53 was built with outdoor living in mind. It features a sunken foredeck lounge, a flybridge with seating and a wet bar, and an aft cockpit, giving guests a variety of places to gather. A hydraulic bathing platform opens onto a large aft garage, with room for dive gear, paddleboards, and other watersports equipment.
Below deck, owners can choose between three- and four-cabin layouts. In the three-cabin version, the owner’s suite occupies the full port hull, complete with a lounge or private study space. Two guest cabins in the starboard hull have outboard-facing beds, so guests wake up to sea views through the hull windows.
