Helsinki Vene Båt 2026: Best boats from Northern Europe’s biggest boat show

Ticking all the Quarken boxes of seaworthiness and high functionality the new model adds next level liveability. A lot of thought has gone into making this a practical family boat – easy-care upholstery, shape-shifting furniture and excellent ambient lighting which would certainly lift the mood on grey northern days. The master cabin has a comfortable couch and table creating a genuinely usable workspace afloat.

At the helm, joystick control, bow thruster and Zipwake are neatly integrated for intuitive handling. This one’s a real winner.

Inside, solid teak joinery and in-house craftsmanship define the finish. Down below, everything is carefully thought out to make the most of the space with separate head compartment with shower and headroom, and a generous aft cabin.

Mechanical controls and non-electric steering are designed to deliver an exhilarating and physical ride in any sea condition. The new styling reinforces the intent, with darker hull graphics and custom upholstery. The rugged credentials and superior quality will appeal to owners who prioritise pace, control and a confidence-inspiring ride.

As Finnish as they come, these boats are extremely popular across Northern Europe and would sit more than comfortably in the UK market. Build quality is strong with thoughtful details designed with families in mind. Safety is central to the AMT philosophy- high back rests will make fast passages feel secure.  The 210BR continues to build around its “Always to Shore” principle, routing critical systems within a protected inner structure so that even in the unlikely event of hull damage, steering and fuel systems remain safeguarded.

Part of the Nimbus Group portfolio, Falcon benefits from extensive European dealer coverage.

Classed as a 12-metre hull but extended via a bolted-on anchor section to 14 metres overall, it cleverly maximises usable length within its category. Ice-coded and designed for year-round Nordic use, it targets owners who prioritise durability and comfort and who like a look that will stand out in any marina.

The cabin sits on rubber mounts to reduce vibration, and the interior layout is highly adaptable – sofa and table lift clear to open the space, and a convertible berth adds flexibility. A full shower compartment and warm-air windscreen venting reinforce its serious cold-weather credentials.
