Gulf Craft expands in Asia

DUBAI — Gulf Craft Inc, the Middle East's largest boat and yacht manufacturer, has rounded off a successful year by extending its customer base in Asia with a strong appearance at the Phuket International Marine Expo (PIMEX) and delivery of its first Majesty 50 yacht to Malaysia.

With four boats on display including the Gulf Craft brands Oryx 36 and Sea Breeze 33, the Thailand dealer experienced positive feedback from visitors and secured 3 new orders during the 4-day event.

"We are delighted with the interest from visitors to PIMEX which represents the growing marine industry in Thailand. Participation at boat shows such as PIMEX will help to cement our growing presence in the Asia market," said Erwin Bamps, executive manager, Gulf Craft Inc.

Gulf Craft's Thailand dealer, Go Boating, also used the PIMEX event to open its new office in Royal Phuket Marina. The opening has led to an expansion in services and as a result all Gulf Craft boats sold through the dealer can be serviced in-house for a faster and more cost effective after sales service.

In addition to its success at PIMEX, Gulf Craft also recently saw delivery of its first Majesty 50 yacht to Malaysia. The yacht, which will be used for corporate purposes, will be seen gracing the coastlines of Malaysia and its neighbouring countries.
