Gulf Craft celebrates excellent response to the inaugural Kuwait Boat Show

"We are delighted with the interest from visitors to the Kuwait Boat Show, most of which were Kuwaiti nationals. Kuwait is one of the three most important countries in the Middle East boating industry and therefore we will continue to support the organizers to help grow the show next year," said Erwin Bamps, Executive Manager, Gulf Craft Inc.

As one of the most prominent exhibitors at the show, Gulf Craft showcased a staggering 14 boats, through the company's local distributors Al Boom Marine and Alghanim Marine.

Representing the growing boating industry in Kuwait, one of the company's largest local distributors, Al Boom Marine, received an impressive 11 boat orders, including four Majesty Yachts during the exhibition.

"Our stand was visited by a constant flow of potential consumers, demonstrating that even in its entry year; the Kuwait Boat show has huge potential for supporting the expanding boating culture in the country. On our on-land stand we were exhibiting Gulf Craft's day cruisers the Dolphin Super Deluxe 31, the Walkaround 31 and the Dolphin 31 to cater to the needs of the high levels of boat enthusiasts ready to enter the market. While most customer interest was definitely focused on the Oryx 36 Sport Cruisers, the new Majesty 56 and of course the Majesty 101 super yachts were also of great interest to consumers,"

continued Adel Alsumait, Al Boom Marine.

Gulf Craft were also honored to receive a visit from President of Kuwait National Assembly Mr. Jasem Alkharafi, who was taken on a guided tour of the Majesty 101, one of the company's flagship boats on display at the show.

"The general trend that we experienced from the Kuwaiti market was a strong interest in our larger super yachts such as the Majesty 101, whilst the younger audiences were attracted to Gulf Craft's sports vessels such as the Oryx 36. This is very positive information for Gulf Craft as we continue to grow the business inline with consumers needs in the region," concluded Erwin Bamps.

Gulf Craft will continue to expand their presence internationally by exhibiting in international boat shows globally such as Bangkok, Maldives and Australia in the next few months.
