Duthie Lidgard, managing director of Asia Pacific Superyachts NZ, has reported that APS NZ have signed on as Agents for COAST NZ. The company specializes in handmade luxury luggage, textiles and furnishings for the superyacht industry. It has supplied its luxury goods to such outstanding vessels as the 183-foot Perini Navi charter yacht Zenji.
“Coast NZ will be one of our core luxury products we will offer and promote to our Charter Guests and Clients within NZ and to the new builds in Europe”, announced Lidgard and Jeanette Tobin, founder of APS New Zealand.
In 2003 Nicola and Alex Webster started Coast New Zealand with the specific goal of establishing a luxury brand that would reflect New Zealand’s unique quality of life.
Coast New Zealand designs a range of luxury luggage, indoor and outdoor bean bags, pillows & homeware accessories.
Company owner Nicola Webster notes, “From the outset we have drawn inspiration from the rewards and challenges of life by the sea: simple, relaxing and beautiful, but rugged and unforgiving. Inevitably, our design process has concentrated as much on materials and construction as on aesthetics and style, to ensure that everything we make is not only enduring, but timeless.”
