Leading yacht and boat builder Gulf Craft is displaying the 41-metre “floating palace”, Majesty 135, at the ongoing Qatar International Boat Show.
While Majesty 135 is the largest superyacht on exhibit at the event, the company has also presented two global premieres of its latest innovations, a first time at the show, according to a statement.
Featuring the largest fleet on display at the event, Gulf Craft’s participation marks its third consecutive year at Qatar’s yachting lifestyle event, which is being held at Mourjan Marinas — Lusail City until November 14, the statement noted.
Besides the Majesty 135, Gulf Craft’s wide range of yachts, boats and sport cruisers, designed to meet the diverse needs of the company’s discerning Qatari clientele, is also on display at the show.
The range includes Gulf Craft’s recently launched Nomad Yachts collection, a series of powerfully engineered and comfortable loft-style yachts built for avid explorers of the sea, as well as two global premieres – the Silvercraft 31 HT and the Oryx 43 Fly.
Describing Qatar as being home to one of the most enthusiastic boating communities in the region, Gulf Craft CEO Erwin Bamps said: “Water leisure is transforming into a lifestyle choice, and Qatari boat enthusiasts are becoming increasingly interested in luxury and on-water living. They are enamoured by the fascinating experience of travelling by sea, and so they are continuously looking for ways to enhance that experience through our latest innovations.”
Accounting for 40% of the leisure craft market share in Qatar, Bamps expects Gulf Craft’s presence to grow further.
Faysal Mikati, founder and CEO of SnowComms and conceptualiser of the event, said: “The unique commitments of international and regional partners like Gulf Craft bring innovative solutions to the market while tailoring products to meet the unique needs of Qatari enthusiasts.”
