Day one at the Sydney Charter Show 2026. Presented by @superyachtaustralia and hosted at @jonesbaysm @JonesBayWharfMarina , this marks Gineico Marine’s first appearance at the show, and what a start it has been. Across the dock, we are showcasing a curated selection of Italian-designed superyacht furniture, created for comfort, performance and refined onboard living. Pieces designed not only to elevate, but to endure the realities of life at sea. Thank you to everyone who visited us on day one. The conversations, connections and shared passion for considered design have made it a standout beginning. If you are attending on day two, we would be delighted to welcome you dockside today! 🛥️ Superyacht furniture on display 📍 Jones Bay Superyacht Marina, Sydney Thoughtful design. Proven performance.
