Dubai, March 13, 2009: Gulf Craft Inc, is celebrating another successful Dubai International Boat Show having achieved good sales results during the five day event and growing interest for its super yacht product line.

“The Dubai International Boat Show has always been a landmark event for Gulf Craft and a highlight in the global maritime calendar. The strong interest and sales confirmations for our new launches during the event, reaffirms the fact that DIBS continues to be the ideal launching platform for our official product releases to the world,” said Erwin Bamps, Executive Manager, Gulf Craft Inc.

Gulf Craft was once again the largest exhibitor at DIBS, exhibiting a total of 18 models, a figure that represents the company’s growing market share and continued commitment to servicing the marine needs of the Middle East and international market.

“Gulf Craft was pleasantly surprised with the significant number of serious visitors who attended the boat show coming from the GCC and overseas. The genuine interest in our super yachts has been promising enough that we look forward to the organiser’s efforts in enhancing the presentation possibilities for large super yachts in the future editions of this event,” added Erwin Bamps. We are very grateful to both organisers and visitors of the DIBS for their support to make this event so successful,” added Bamps.

Gulf Craft secured solid orders for each of its four newly launched product models. The strategy of continuous product development and innovation, as well as maintained focus on constantly increasing added value to clients combined with excellent resale value for Gulf Craft yacht owners has helped the local company capture a significant market share.

Following a successful appearance in Dubai, the company is displaying at the Abu Dhabi Yacht Show’s first edition two of its signature masterpieces, the Majesty 121 and the Majesty 101. The company is emphatic about the success of the debut show in the capital after a successful DIBS 2009.
