Mystic Showcasing M5200 At St. Petersburg Boat Show
Visitors to the St. Petersburg Power and Sailboat Show in Southwest Florida, which opened this morning and runs through Sunday, will have plenty to ogle this week. But on the powerboat side, the in-water display at the event is primarily a showcase for fishing boats and yachts, tenders.

Sure to stand out among them is the first Mystic Powerboats M5200 luxury performance center console. The 52-footer powered by four Mercury Marine Verado 600 outboard engines is one of the few luxury center consoles with legitimate high-performance credentials in the event.
The DeLand, Fla., company first exhibited at the show in 2022. According to nationals sales manager Greg Weber, he and Mystic principal and John Cosker found enough value in it to return this year.
“It’s a small show but a very high-dollar show,” Weber explained. “There are some very nice boats here, but most are big, all-white boats with fishing gear on them and yachts. And it’s an excellent facility—easy to get to, easy in and easy out. It’s a lot like the Palm Beach Show, where we also participate. So we decided to come back.”
Because of the show’s in-water display configuration, neither the M5200 nor its M3800 sibling will be available for demo rides. But both will be available for walk-throughs throughout the week.
