FORT LAUDERDALE, FL / ACCESS Newswire / September 29, 2025 / Vision Marine Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: VMAR) ("Vision Marine" or the "Company"), a company specializing in marine innovation across electric and internal combustion platforms, together with its Nautical Ventures division, announced today milestone activations for the 2025 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), including a VIP shuttle service operated with Vision Marine's electric boats and a reimagined AquaZone™ developed in collaboration with AquaBanas and Informa Markets.

FLIBS owned by the Marine Industries Association of South Florida produced by Informa Markets, is the largest in-water boat show in the United States and one of the most prestigious marine events worldwide, attracting more than 100,000 visitors annually. With more than 450 exhibitions globally, Informa has built FLIBS into the premier stage for boating innovation.

This year's AquaZone™ will debut in a brand-new floating island format, made possible through AquaBanas' modular platform system. Presented as a show within the show, this year's AquaZone™ is set to deliver the most immersive experience ever staged at FLIBS, combining live on-water demonstrations, direct consumer interaction, and hands-on access to innovative products in a dedicated destination at the docks.

The reimagined AquaZone™ will bring together:

Vision Marine's electric boat and technology portfolio.
The newest lineup of EV toys and watersports products retailed by Nautical Ventures, reflecting the rollout of a dedicated electric division.
A refreshed Nautical Ventures watersports and lifestyle offering, expanding its reach as a hub for marine innovation.
Selected vendor and partner showcases, highlighting emerging marine technologies and new product debuts.
Marine commodities, accessories, and lifestyle items curated to enhance the on-water experience.

For the first time, AquaZone™ will also introduce opportunities for attendees to purchase select boats and products directly on-site. This direct-to-consumer component supports Vision Marine's retail adoption strategy and reinforces Nautical Ventures' position as a distribution channel for electric propulsion and lifestyle marine products.

"By presenting the floating AquaZone™ at the docks of FLIBS and operating a VIP shuttle service powered by Vision Marine's electric boats, we are expanding the way innovation is experienced at the show," said Roger Moore, Founder of Nautical Ventures and Chief Revenue Officer. "This year's AquaZone™ delivers the most immersive experience ever created at FLIBS, powered by Vision Marine's electric lineup, AquaBanas' floating island technology, and Nautical Ventures' network of innovation."

Informa Markets highlighted the significance of this year's new format:
"FLIBS has always been the premier stage for boating innovation, and the AquaZone™ reflects our commitment to enhancing that experience," said Andrew Doole, President of U.S. Boat Shows for Informa Markets. "By partnering with Nautical Ventures and AquaBanas, we are introducing a brand-new format that will engage consumers, dealers, and media in new ways."

"The AquaZone™ demonstrates what is possible when Nautical Ventures' disruptive marketing meets Vision Marine's adoption platform and Informa's global leadership," added Alexandre Mongeon, CEO and co-founder of Vision Marine. "It is both a milestone for this year's show and a foundation for the commercialization of the E-Motion™ platform as electric boating adoption continues to accelerate."
