If you didn't get enough of the world's big yachts at the just-ended Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, get ready for a superyacht show coming to Miami soon.

Boat show organizer Show Management of Fort Lauderdale is adding a specialty event to its portfolio: Superyacht Miami, set to debut in February during the Miami area's boat show weekend.

Superyachts ? typically defined at about 100-feet or longer ? will be displayed at the new Island Gardens Deep Harbour marina on Watson Island on Biscayne Bay. It's the first U.S. marina built specifically for the world's largest pleasure craft.

Deep Harbour is set to open in December at a cost of $47 million, including the dredging needed to deepen access to its facilities. With 5,000 linear feet of docks, the luxury facility expects to host dozens of boats averaging 160 feet. It can hold yachts up to 550-feet long, said developer Mehmet Bayraktar, chairman and CEO of Flagstone Property Group.
