After an exhaustive search for the world’s leading superyacht businesses, a 15,000 strong network of crew and captains has voted Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard (GCCM) as Australasia’s leading superyacht marina in ACrew’s inaugural Superyacht Business Awards.

The voting was based on the marina that provided the best standard of services and facilities to superyacht captains and crew as well as a willingness to assist superyacht guests; ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

“We are humbled and proud to be recognised by this award. We share it with all of our onsite tenants and partners. It is truly a team effort,” stated GCCM’s CEO, Mr Trenton Gay.

“When we launched the concept of GCCM over 20 years ago, our aim was to design the best marina and shipyard facility which would be the base for Australia’s leading marine trades offering the very best in customer service and quality.

“We believe we have achieved this and through ongoing investment, improvements and expansion of the site, we continue to meet the needs of the global superyacht fleet.”
