The prominent luxury yacht manufacturer, Horizon Group, was one of 25 Superyacht Builders Association (SYBAss) members who took part in “The Superyacht Experience” event. This took place during the 2012 Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show and its participants spoke about future events as well as endeavors for the organization.
The meeting focused on SYBAss’s new mission – to actively attend more worldwide social and business events to educate others on the yachting lifestyle and promote the luxury superyacht industry – and all SYBAss members were in agreement with the new SYBAss charge.
Horizon Group CEO John Lu stated that according to industry statistics, there are currently 4490 yachts 100 feet in length in the global industry. He went on to note that 50% of these yachts were delivered within the past ten years and only to a small percentage of the total amount of global high net worth individuals, meaning that many potential buyers are still not being reached. Horizon will continue to explore new market segments while remaining dedicated to its current clients, and it hopes to grow the Horizon family exponentially in 2013.
SYBAss comprises the most experienced and prestigious luxury yacht manufacturers in the world, and Horizon Group is the first member of SYBAss from the Far East. Horizon was honored to be a part of “The Superyacht Experience” event and looks forward to contributing to SYBAss’ 2013 mission.
