CITY MARINA
superyacht refit sheds and over 60 onsite marine related trades, making it by far the largest and most awarded marina and shipyard in the Southern Hemisphere. “Australia is rightly being recognised as a more cost- effective option for superyacht maintenance and refit, with the added benefit of owners being able to enjoy the great diversity and unspoilt beauty of the southern cruising grounds and perfect year round cruising weather. We’ve also got some big events coming up which are attracting both charter and private superyachts, such as the 2018 Commonwealth Games. Our planned site upgrades and new strategic alliances will
ensure that we are able to keep up with demand and continue to provide unparalleled service to visiting superyachts.” Proposals for future
improvements and expansion of the current facilities also include the development of GCCM Stage 2 on a 20 hectare site with planning currently underway. Customer focus, collaboration and innovation are central to GCCM’s future plans that also include enhanced project management capabilities in order to take away the stress of deadlines, budgets and quality control. “While some superyacht captains prefer to come and utilise our facilities and onsite trades themselves, others want
the complete service from our team including project management and we are happy to help either way. We are able to offer project management services better than any other boatyard in Australia due to the combined experience of over nine highly qualified and internationally-accredited project managers operating here on site,” said Gay. “We can provide a tailor made solution no matter how large or small the project and we can turn projects around faster and more cost effectively because everything is here on site.”
