Luxury motor yacht builder Fairline Boats has further strenghtened its Australian sales network with the appointment of Chach Pty Ltd as its authorised dealer for Queensland.
The new dealership, which will trade under the name Fairline Queensland, is based in the popular Gold Coast boating haven of Runaway Bay. Fairline have approved it to provide a full range of services on behalf of the world-renowned British marque, including sales, brokerage and factory-backed warranty support, along with boat maintenance, repairs and detailing, competitive finance and insurance, skippering tuition and yacht trades.
Headed by Josh Metz and Glen Moltoni, Fairline Queensland boasts combined experience of over 20 years skippering, from Australia, the USA to the South America and Europe. “Queensland is a mature and natural market for one of the biggest and most respected global brands in boating,” said Josh Metz.
The dealership has recently begun marketing Fairline’s two flagship luxury motor yacht lines, Squadron and Targa, and has already placed its first order – for a Fairline Squadron 42 yacht, scheduled for delivery in February 2012. Bryan Jones, President of Fairline Boats Asia, commented: “This latest dealership extends our network from New South Wales, Western Australia and Victoria as Fairline cements its position as the leading luxury motor yacht brand in Australia and beyond.”
The new dealership is the latest in a fast-growing network being established across the Asia-Pacific as Fairline embarks on an intensive marketing initiative in the region. Following the opening of a dedicated corporate office, Fairline Boats Asia, in Singapore, the brand has also established new dealerships in China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand and New Zealand.
Fairline’s latest yacht Squadron 50, was unveiled at the Southampton Boat Show in the UK last September, and will be delivered to Australia by mid 2012.
