Headline speakers for Marinas19 T


he Marinas19 International Conference and Trade Exhibition to be held on Australia’s Gold Coast


from 27-28 May is taking shape with keynote speakers secured and associated activities locked in. Andrew Chapman, Chairman of the Marina Industries Association (MIA), said “The foundations are now in place for a most successful international event”. Addressing the topic of marinas and their key role in servicing and profiting from the emerging boat-sharing economy will be a panel of proven boat share operators. The panel will include Phillip Pitt, Managing Director of Pacific Boating in Australia and John Giglio, President and CEO of Freedom Boat Club, which is the largest private share boating club in North America. The Club has over 20,000 members in 165 marinas


across the US and Canada with a fleet of more than 2,000 boats. Future consumer and demographic


trends and the implications for the marina industry will be the focus of a plenary session by Simon Kuestenmacher, the Director of Research at The Demographics Group based in Melbourne. Simon is a rising star in data animation and interpretation and a contributing writer to ‘The Australian’ newspaper. Darren Vaux will deliver on the very pertinent topic of marina leases and the requirements for a sustainable investment framework to enable marinas to not only survive, but to thrive at a time when there are increasing competitive pressures for waterfront real estate. Darren is the MIA Vice-Chairman and a Director of the Five Gold Anchor Platinum Empire Marina Bobbin Head in Sydney.


Mark Sanders is the President of


Westpoint Harbor, a full-service marina located in Redwood City, USA. Mark will provide insights into creating business ‘unfair advantages’, which differentiate his marina from others in a way they cannot compete. Mark’s presentation and interactive session will set an upbeat tone for the session entitled ‘Marina Design: Making the Best Use of your Marina Assets’ that will include a showcase of tested design ideas. A dedicated stream focused on


waterways management will be led by Hal Morris, the CEO of Gold Coast Waterways Authority (GCWA). The Queensland Government established GCWA to deliver the best possible management of the Gold Coast waterways at reasonable cost to the community and government, while keeping regulation to a minimum. Hal

will share the experiences at GCWA with inputs from a range of other waterways agencies from across Australia.


Marinas19 will be ‘topped and tailed’ with two networking events. On the evening of Sunday, 26 May, preceeding Marinas19 and after the conclusion of the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, there will be an informal networking BBQ at Southport Yacht Club. The Marinas19 Awards Dinner will be held at Sea World at the conclusion of day two and the event will conclude with an optional technical tour of leading Gold Coast facilities on Wednesday, 29 May.

regional constituencies, including an active group in Scotland that includes both mainland and island members. It has a long association with


Seawork and Executive Officer Peter Moth states, “We are pleased to return once more to Seawork.


The exhibition always proves interesting for our members. It certainly ticks lots of boxes with the opportunity to see new innovations in the port sector and new operational practices, which are applicable to Harbour Masters in the British Isles”.
