Two pre-show sales and more leads in the pipeline
Kuwait - Integrity Yachts has announced the successful sale of two of their latest power yachts, the Integrity 55, which will be delivered to their Kuwaiti owners during the summer. More contracts are expected to be signed during the 2nd Kuwait Boat Show International.
The Integrity 55 was first launched at the Dubai International Boat Show and was set to make its official debut in Kuwait during the marine exhibition hosted by Knotika Holding. The boat, which was fully designed and built in the United Arab Emirates, combines a sleek and ergonomically well crafted exterior, with a luxurious interior design with plush fittings to suit the discerning tastes of the Middle Eastern boating enthusiast.
"We were delighted with the response we got for this new power cruiser and we are especially proud of the fact that it is one of the few in the world that has been designed and built in Arabia for an international market," said Sunil Mathew, Marketing and Business Development Manager for Integrity Yachts. "This boat represents a unique lifestyle choice which focuses on the pleasure of the journey as much as the destination itself. It delivers high quality performance at very competitive prices while offering a truly luxurious experience on the water."
Mr. Mathew said that interest and demand for the Integrity 55 had led to two being sold to new Kuwaiti owners in advance of the show and he added that he was confident of more sales and significant interest in the boat during the 5-day event.
The Integrity 55 is fitted with twin Volvo Penta D12 engines realising 775 horsepower each and giving a top speed of over 30 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of 26 knots. The seaworthiness and handling capability is on a par with that of the very best international vessels, offering high maneuverability and stability to help maintain a dry interior even at higher speeds.
Kuwait's passion for high powered quality seagoing craft means that the Integrity 55 is set to be a major attraction at the Kuwait Boat Show International that runs from 29 April to 3 May and is open daily from 4pm to 10pm at the Fahaheel Waterfront - Al Kout.
