Marex New Web Site

Marex presents its new web site.  Marex was founded in 1973 by Eyvin Aalrud in Rykene, with the name coming from the Latin words Mare-Rex which means King of the Sea.  In its first year Marex debuted the 24 Sun Cab model, which was also offered in a 24 Sun Fun variant by the end of that year.  The first Marex 24 Sun Cab model will be produced for fourteen years selling 432 units, its second best sold model to date following the 21 Flexi from the eighties till 2001 which sold in 593 units.  In 1979 Marex suffers a set back as its Rykene factory is destroyed by a fire, with Eyvin relocating in Fevik, a previous Fjord Boats factory.  In 1996 Marex started a cooperation with Saulius Pajarskas and Raimondas Siugzdinis who had a small boat production facility in Kaunas, Lithuania.  This was started with the 270 Estremo model, but eventually all the production will be moved to the Baltic state.  Marex has always been a family holding and continues as at today with this philosophy with Eyvin sons, Espen and Thomas Aalrud taking over the company helm in 2009.  Marex has up till today build over 3500 boats in over thirty different models, and received twelve awards. Today Marex offers seven models from nine to twelve meters, starting with the 310 Sun Cruiser and go up to 440, with its latest model being the 440 Scandinavia arriving in early 2025.

Prestige New Web Site

Prestige presents its new website.  Prestige was officially started in 2009, although the name first appeared in Jeanneau's model line up in 1989, when the Prestige 41 sport cruiser as designed by Massimo Musio-Sale and Vittorio Garroni, and naval architecture by Japec and Jernej Japokin.  The Jeanneau Prestige 41 was a good seller, with the first hull sold to famous French actor Alain Delon and selling a total of 45 units, but ultimately the model will only be produced for two years till 1991, and its platform used for the Ferretti joint venture Yarding Yacht brand and the 42 Fly and 42 Open models for another two years till 1994.  Eight years after the Jeanneau 41 Prestige is discontinued, the French boat and yacht builder now since 1995 owned by the Groupe Beneteau decides to return Prestige, and again gives design duties to Vittorio Garroni, as it presents the 36 with flybridge in the fall of 1999.  The Jeanneau Prestige 36 will start the Prestige line, as the model is followed by the Prestige 32 a year later in 2000, and the Prestige 34S sport cruiser in 2003.  Thanks to its nice design by Garroni and competitiveness the Prestige line is by the mid noughties a top selling name in the motor and sport cruisers from ten to fourteen meters in size segment, and Jeanneau notes this and in 2004 opens a solely Prestige factory in Nantes, with the plan to enter into the larger fifteen meters plus sizes, which it does in 2006 as it presents the Prestige 50S.  Seeing again more success Groupe Beneteau decides in 2009 to re-brand Prestige as an independent brand, as it launches the new Prestige 60 flagship model in that same year.  Following the rebranding Prestige keeps on expanding into larger sizes, as in 2013 it also launches the 750, which is produced for four years and still its largest build to date.  Prestige has in its story made two bold design choices; with the X-Line and M-Line series. The X-Line is a wide body volume focused series which arrived in 2019 and debuts with the X70 and is followed by the asymmetric semi-wide-body X60.  The M-Line comes in 2022 entering Prestige into the power catamaran segment with the M48, which is followed a year later in 2023 by the M8, what is Prestige largest for volume model to date.  As top sellers go the Jeanneau Prestige 34S from 2003 to 2009 is its best sold model to date with over five hundred units sold, and is followed by the 500 Flybridge and S sharing platform as produced from 2011 to 2019 which sells four hundred plus in total for the two model versions.  Currently Prestige offers thirteen models, divided into four lines; M-Line, X-Line, F-Line, and S-Line which start from the 420S and go up to the X70.  All Prestige models have to date been designed by Garroni, with the latest models being the F4.3 which debuted last January, and the upcoming M7 which is set to arrive in mid this year.  The Prestige web site is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Turkey, Portuguese, Russian, and Chinese, and takes you around with the following buttons; The Brand, Our Yachts, News, Services, Our Dealers, Configurator, and Contact.  Prestige is also on social media with bottom page links taking you to its Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, and Linkedin pages.

Sunseeker New Web Site

Sunseeker updates its world wide web showroom. Sunseeker story starts in 1962 when Idris Braithwaite sons, Robert and John enter the family business and a year later to this moves his chandlery and outboards shop down the road from Christchurch to Poole.  With this change of location the Braithwaite's and business partner John Macklin enter into boat sales of American, British, and Scandinavian made boats and Poole Powerboats Limited is created.  In 1969 the Braithwaite's purchase two boat moulds for a seventeen and a twenty foot cuddy sport cruisers from Brunswick owned Owens Incorporated, with the first becoming the Poole Powerboats 17 Sovereign in 1971 and the other the 20 Sovereign a year later.  These first two boats are also the first standard stern drive equipped made in Britain boats.  For that time the two cuddy cabin cruisers sufficed Poole Powerboats purpose as entry to the dealership family of Scandinavian made Coronet, Draco, and Windy boats, as the Braithwaite's also become the largest Volvo Penta parts supplier for the United Kingdom in the early seventies.  Nonetheless a year forward the boat production business expands in late 1972 with the 23 Sports, followed four years later by the Daycab 23.  The Poole Powerboats 23 Sports and Daycab 23 were also the first to feature the Sunseeker prefix on the hull, used by Robert Braithwaite for European export reasons as Poole Powerboats was likely to be confused with the French ‘poulet’ word for chicken in France.  Produced in 120 units from 1976 to 1979 the Daycab 23 was Poole Powerboats first big success, which pushes the Braithwaite brothers into boat building, and in 1978 will partner with naval architect Don Shead, who debuts with the 28 Offshore and will not look back afterwards, for a partnership that will last till 2010 and his retirement.  In 1979 Poole Powerboats changes its name and is rebranded to what has been known since then as Sunseeker.  From their onwards the range becomes more complete and the sizes keep growing from the 31 Offshore in 1982, to the CUV 38 racing powerboat derived hull 34 XPS Portofino in 1983, to the 36 Rapallo in 1984, 47 Malibu in 1987, 60 Renegade in 1990 which was Britain's largest production yacht in that year, then to the Predator 63 in 1994, until arriving in the 24 meter plus super size with the 80 Predator in 1995 which again takes the mantle of Britain's largest production build yacht.  After the 80 Predator Sunseeker has been building United Kingdom largest production super yachts, which will arrive to its largest 155 Yacht as build in two units between 2014 and 2016.  Sunseeker also competed in various offshore races in the past for the most part in the eighties and noughties in the Endurance class, with its high point coming when it won the Round Britain 1984 in the CX Class, and placing fifth overall with a 34 XPS Portofino.  The Braithwaite's will sell Sunseeker in 2010 to Irish private equity firm FL Partners, who in December 2013 resell to Chinese company Dalian Wanda Group.  In November 2024 Sunseeker was sold to private equity firms Lionheart Capital from the U.S. and Italy’s Orienta Capital Partners.  Sunseeker today produces 24 models from 38 foot to fifty meters, in six ranges; Performance, Predator, Sport Yacht, Manhattan, Yacht, Ocean, and Superyacht.  Sunseeker current offer starts from the outboard powered Fabio Buzzi designed Hawk 38 and go up to the still in project 50M Ocean, with its latest model being the second generation Manhattan 68 which debuted past January.  Sunseeker new web site takes you around with the following buttons; Menu, Yachts, and Dealer Locator.

Grand Banks New Web Site

Grand Banks unveils a new World wide web virtual showroom site. Grand Banks started operating in 1956 as American Marine Limited founded by Robert J. Newton and sons John and Whit in Hong Kong. But the start was not about a trawler yacht, as its first jobs it built custom Sparkman and Stephens, William Gardner, Nat Herreshoff, and Ray Hunt designed sailing yachts.  American Marine entry into motor boating starts in 1961 as they start to produce the Chantyman, a 34 foot cruiser designed by Hugh Angleman and Charles Davies which will be build in twenty units till 1963.  In 1963 Grand Banks also build a luxurious one off 65 foot constructed of mahogany and teak to a design of Walter J McInnis for wealthy American, Philip L Van Every, who was Chief Executive of Lance Inc. and Mayor of Charlotte, North Carolina. In 1962 though comes the real change as the Newton's commission Kenneth Smith a 36 feet humble cruising boat with work-boat like looks, which will be named Spray. This 36 Classic was a turn around for the Newton's and with it a change from building custom sailing yachts to this traditional looking explorer cruiser.  Launched in 1964 this Kenneth Smith design will evolve into the Grand Banks 36 Classic and remain in production till 2004, and was followed in the same year by a smaller 32 Sedan, with this series taking the name of Heritage into the years and totalling 22 models in a production run which lasted till 2016 and included a one off 80 model launched in 1975. In 1973 Grand Banks starts switching all its models to fiberglass construction.  1993 marks an important move to Grand Banks launching the Eastbay series designed by previous collaborator Ray Hunt, and inspired to the Down East lobster boats.  The Eastbay started with the 38 EX and up till today it has totalled sixteen models, from the small 38 to the 60 which arrived in 2022.  In 2001 the Aleutian larger yacht series was introduced with the 64, and in fourteen years it featured seven different models from the 2010 two year produced 53 to the 76 RP produced from 2010 till 2012. In 2014 Grand Banks started a new path when it bought out Palm Beach motor yachts and CEO Mark Richards takes over the leadership of both companies.  After Mark Richards took over he changed the traditional GB explorer line, and reinvented it with V-warp hull shape, and redefined exterior looks, starting it with the GB60 launched in 2017.  Currently Grand Banks offers nine models in two range Eastbay and and the reinvented explorer GB line. The Grand Banks line starts with the Eastbay 44, and goes up to the Grand Banks 85.  Grand Banks new web site takes you around with the following buttons; Models, V Warp Technology,  Factory Direct Advantage, Service, Pre-Owned, Grand Banks Heritage, and Contact. Grand Banks is also on social media with buttons on the bottom of the page taking you to its; Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and Linkedin pages.

Cranchi New Web Site

Cranchi presents its new World wide web showroom. Cranchi was officially founded in 1870, with the today World known production and yacht builder story starting when Giovanni Cranchi opens a workshop in Como in 1866 building fisherman and transport boats on commission, who after four years officially registers Cantiere Nautico Cranchi. In 1932 the grandson of Cranchi also named Giovanni purchases a building in Brienno, Como on the lake shore and transforms it into a shipyard. This step leads into 1952 when Cranchi and his children devote themselves to wooden boats mass production. But the real turn around for Cranchi comes from fourth generation Aldo in 1970, who partners with Tullio Monzino, moves to shipyard to nearby Valtellina and starts fiberglass production in the new establishment in Piantedo, Sondrio. This move produces the first Kiko model, and leads after this to various over one thousand delivered models; 1971 4.85 Pilotina, 1974 20 Rally, and the 1997 launched 34 Zaffiro. The plant in Piantedo also continues its expansion and in the eighties expands to 20,000 squared metres, and again to 33,000. Other sites are also added; San Giorgio di Nogaro Marine Test Center in 1997, San Giorgio di Nogaro 22,000 square meters factory, a third plant in Colico, Lecce, and last in 2005 the opening of Seventy Plant 4 dedicated to plus fifty foot yachts in an area of 100,000 squared meters of which 25,000 covered located in Rogolo, Sondrio. In all these plants Cranchi today produces ten models from the entry level E26 Rider, to the Settantotto 78 flagship, with its latest models being the just debuted Sessantasette 67 Corsa and the Sessantadue 62, with an upcoming Cinquantatre 53 project coming in 2025.

Sealine New Web Site

Sealine presents its new World wide web showroom.  Sealine was officially started in 1978 although its bases were laid in 1972, as aeronautical engineer Tom Murrant could not find a cabin cruiser he liked, and decided to design and build one himself.  Tom builds the mould for his design and goes to Midland Marine to produce this boat, offering a swap deal, they build it for him and they get the design.  Unfortunately for Tom, Midland Marine was a busy company at the time, and the production for his boat never gets started, it is here that Murrant meets Frank Fish who with Ray Walker and another friend offer him to build the boat in his garage. The result is the 23ft Continental, which gets so much positive remarks, that Tom decides to take five hundred pounds from his life insurance fund, recruit his wife Jane as secretary and set up Fibrasonic in a rented building at Halfpenny Green airfield near Bobbington in Staffordshire to produce the cabin cruiser.  It looks promising but only for a short time as the 1973 to March 1974 Oil Crisis hits the global economy hard in sixth October of that year, doubling resin prices, with the UK government introducing a 25% VAT and a three day week.  But Fibrasconic survives this period which lasts five years by branching into industrial moulding, producing items for the British Rail, road signs, Toby Jugs, and sub-contracting other boat builds for Sunliner and Scorpio.  In 1978 the Oil Crisis and its aftermath are over and Tom restarts his boat building bug and designs and builds the 19 Weekender, and in just six weeks completes it, with this followed by the 22 Sport and 22 Cabin in the same year.  These three boats debut to the public at the 1978 Southampton boat show, under the C-Line name meaning really Cruiser Line, and in the same year Murrant moves to Kidderminster, the site of bankrupt boat builder Dawncraft.  In the end of 1979, the C-Line name was changed to Sealine.  From the beginning Sealine distinct itself for offering gelcoat color options in blue, orange or yellow, but also for presenting a clever volume focused design giving more space to the foot.  The eighties are full of expansion for Sealine and in 1984 it presents the new 30 Statesman flagship.  The size keeps on growing with the 365 Sportsbridge coming in 1988, and the 450 Statesman in 1992, and then into yacht fifty feet plus in 1999 with the T51.  By the end of the eighties decade Sealine also enters the US market, and in 1998 is sold to a Venture Capitalist firm headed by Gerard Wainright.  The Wainright ownership last three years as in 2001 Sealine is sold to one of the largest pleasure marine industry corporations as USA Brunswick takes over the British boat builder for a reported 68 million US$.  The Brunswick period is followed by investment and expansion as Sealine also launches its largest model to date with the T60 in 2004.  Brunswick will sell Sealine in 2011 to Oxford Investment Group.  The Oxford period is dark for Sealine as it will declare bankruptcy a year later, and in 2013 is bought by current owners Hanse Group.  Hanse Group will only buy the brand and some of the tooling as it moves production to Greifswald Germany.  Sealine currently offers three series of boats; C for Coupe, S for Sport, and F for Flybridge for a total of nine models which starts at 33 feet with the C335 and and goes up to the F430 flagship.  Sealine latest new models is the S335 launched in 2022.  Sealine's new website takes you around with the following buttons; Motorboats, Sealine Legend, Magazine, Events, Dealers, Services, Contact Us, and Configure Now.  Sealine is also on social media with right bottom page buttons taking you to its Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Linkedin pages.

Four Winns New Web Site

Four Winns presents its new web site.  Four Winns was founded in 1975 by John Winn with brothers Bill Junior and Charlie, and father Bill Senior who financed the business to buy the Saf-T-Mate boat building company.  Before setting up Four Winns, John Winn worked for Starcraft as a factory rep, and after this he set up a company with his brother Bill representing several boat builders.  One of the builders Winns represented was Saf-T-Mate, founded in 1962 from Cadillac, Michigan owned by eighty year old George Spicer, who ultimately sold the business to them. In the first year the company continued with the Saf-T-Mate name, changing to Four Winns in 1976 and debuting with six speed boat models; from the fourteen foot Bimini, to the nineteen feet Nassau.  In May 1978 tragedy hit Four Winns as a fire totalled all the factory in Cadillac.  All was destroyed in this fire minus the tooling, and the willingness to continue.  Technically Four Winns went bankrupt, but due to the excellent results of the Winn brothers, a local bank and suppliers extended the line of credit, with them re-opening a new production facility in Frisbie, Cadillac.  Following the dark period of the oil crisis in the early eighties, Four Winns started a plan for its business to go beyond the state of Michigan, with this resulting in the opening for a new satellite facility in Athens, Texas in 1985, in order to become a national known brand. This paid off and in 1986 Four Winns was rated as the third largest boat builder in the USA, which led to it being sold to Outboard Marine Corporation Boats Group in 1987.  With the selling to OMC, three of the Winns will retire, while John Winn will remain as president up until 1995.  Following financial difficulties in 2000 OMC will be broken apart, with its boating arm and Four Winns sold to Genmar in 2001.  Eight years down the line Genmar will follow a similar path, filing for bankruptcy in 2009, with Four Winns and ten other boating brands sold to Platinum Equity Rec Boat Holdings in 2010.  In 2014 Four Winns along with three other boat brands was bought by the Beneteau Group.  Four Winns today offers fifteen model in four ranges; Bow Rider, Hybrid Deck, Surf Series, and Multihull which start from the twenty foot H1, and go to the 36 feet TH36.  Four Winns new web site takes you around with the following buttons; Our Boats, Shopping Tools, Owners, Build and Price, Dealer Location, and Become a Dealer.  Four Winns is also present on social media with bottom left buttons taking you to its; Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Linkedin, and Instagram pages.
