Palm Marine showcases its latest leisure yachts at the Kuwait Boat Show

Held in Al-Kout resort on the shore of the Fahaheel maritime region from the 29th April to 3rd May 2008, the Kuwait Boat Show International (KBSI) will host more than 100 specialised companies to exhibit and show their latest products to an enthusiastic market.

Everything from yachts, boats, and marine engines, tools, equipment and accessories will be on display.

Palm Marine, a Dubai World company, sold seven boats with a combined value of more than $10m at the Dubai Boat Show held recently.

At present, Palm Marine has three leisure lines under development, the Palm Sports cruisers, Palm Islander Flybridge yachts and Palm Fisher sports fishing yachts.

Speaking about their presence at the Kuwait Boat Show, Harald Schlegel, Business Development Manager, Palm Marine stated: "Kuwait has one of the largest registrations of leisure crafts in the GCC. The Kuwaiti market, currently booming, has become a very important and vital market for the regional boat builders and dealers".

"We're very excited to be exhibiting in such a dynamic market at one of the best boat shows in the region. This year's KBSI will be bigger and better than last years in terms of visitors and sales. We had tremendous success at the recently held Dubai International Boat Show and we are confident that our offerings will create a similar response from buyers in Kuwait as well," he added.

Palm Marine has been gathering momentum since their establishment four years ago.

The Dubai World company has aligned with leading global yacht designers to produce qualitative, modern and elegantly styled luxury yachts and commercial crafts under the leadership of CEO Simon Honeybone.

Palm Marine recently merged with sister concern Exomos offers the most modern elegantly styled boats for commercial and personal use.
