“The auctions are set to become a fixture of the local industry as they represent a highly effective way to showcase a diverse range of vessels by bringing buyers, sellers and boat dealers together,” said Mr Ali.
The Gold Coast has the ideal geographical location and adequate infrastructure to support the growth in the marine sector, said Mr Ali.
“The waterways here are among the best in Australia; from the Broadwater to Sanctuary Cove and Hope Island and beyond. The fundamentals for growth are already in place.”
Mr Ali said the current marina berth offer and regular marine auctions are attracting significant interest from vendors and buyers across Australia.
“We are establishing a national body that will provide sellers unprecedented exposure to a broad market via an intensive auction campaign as well as access to the vast Ray White network and database,” he said.
“We bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise gained from representing major luxury European vessel manufacturers as well as brokerage sales for many high-end clients from around Australia.
“There are a growing number of people in Australia, and Queensland in particular, who are looking to offload vessels, upgrade or downgrade within an acceptable time frame – and now there is an avenue to facilitate this activity.”
Ray White Marine also offer a limited series of marina berths at Marina Mirage ranging in size from 18 to 30 metres were released for the first time in the history of the iconic Gold Coast marina destination.
