Doha, Qatar - March 18, 2014

For the third successive year, Gulf Craft, a major manufacturer of luxury yachts and fiberglass boats, will return to Doha for spotlighting its newest superyacht models for the Qatari market.

Recently named as one of the world's top 10 super yacht builders, Gulf Craft will be showcasing a line-up of luxury super yachts, sport cruisers and leisure craft at the 'Gulf Craft Exclusive Preview' event taking place from March 19 to 21 at The Pearl Qatar, in association with its local representatives, Aurora Yachts and Speed Marine.

"The Majesty Yachts Exclusive Preview is an event we are committed to supporting," United Development Company's Acting Chief Executive Officer Badr Al Meer said. "This is one of the main highlights of the year for the leisure marine industry and an event that strengthens the position of The Pearl Qatar's Marina at Porto Arabia as a major destination for buyers of luxury yachts."

He added, The Pearl-Qatar is the yachting playground in Qatar; and no doubt that having established marine facilities and being a lifestyle destination of choice for many yacht enthusiasts, The Island will continue to lead the boating marketplace for years to come."

Leading the line-up of models from its Majesty Yachts, Oryx sport cruiser and Silvercraft leisure craft range, will be the Majesty 135 - the largest-ever superyacht to be showcased in Qatar, and the largest model completed by the shipyard to date.

Rounatica Middle East (RME), a subsidiary of United Development Company and manager/operator of all three marinas at The Pearl-Qatar stands to benefit most from the boat show. "This version of the Boat show is geared to meet the needs of the yachting industry, yachting enthusiasts, potential buyers and visitors alike by offering an unmatched diversity of leisure opportunities to suit everyone," RME General Manager Steve Stiglbauer said. "The boat show will see plenty of qualified buyers, serious discussions, realistic prices and positive negotiations."

The Majesty Yachts Exclusive Preview' event will take place at The Pearl Qatar from March 28 to 30, followed by the Qatari premiere of a new Majesty 135 - Gulf Craft's second-largest superyacht model, and a brand new Majesty 105 - a revolutionary superyacht model that had received high praise for its excellent outdoor entertainment capabilities at the recently concluded Dubai International Boat Show 2014, and also at last year's Dubai edition, where the model was launched.

The Pearl-Qatar marinas are the premiere platform in Qatar for the showcasing of new yacht models. Regularly scheduled water events highlight the Island's excellent marina facilities and strengthen its positioning as a major urban mixed-use development, and that it is at once a maritime destination and a luxury resort bringing the ambience and lifestyle of the Mediterranean to the heart of Arabia.
