The US based company has been marketing their state-of-the-art vertical boat storage solutions for over two years and have already gained serious interest from developers in the Gulf.

Limited existing marina facilities and a shortage of available land for the development of new marinas make this a highly innovative and efficient solution for many of the smaller Gulf States.

"Kuwait is a prime market for such a solution as it affords the efficient use of available land with a superb investment opportunity for local entrepreneurial developers," said Larry Halgren, Vice President of Vertical Yachts.

"The Kuwaiti marine industry is one of the most buoyant in the region and is flourishing due to the high disposable income of many residents. We were delighted to showcase our leading-edge dry storage technology at this boat show in Kuwait and were impressed with the calibre of visitors.

We strongly believe this represents a superb investment opportunity for the right developer looking to maximise their returns".

Vertical Yacht Storage System is based on the patented technology that allows Marina owners to store a large range of boats, from an 18' open fisherman to a 90' express cruiser.

The highly engineered system offers convenient haul and launch times ranging from as little as 3 to 12 minutes depending on the design of the facility and specified equipment used.

Improved maneuvering capabilities have enabled the reduction of aisle space by up to 50 feet, further improving the cost efficient use of storage space.

"We are proud to be able to showcase established brands at our boat shows as well as such leading-edge technology that will help revolutionise the marine industry in the Gulf," said Wael Juju, CEO of Knotika Holding. "The Kuwait Boat Show this year has surpassed our expectations and we are looking forward to a long and fruitful relationship with Kuwait and our venue partners here, Tamdeen Group".
