2021 IS SET TO be an exciting and successful year for the awardwinning Australian luxury motor yacht manufacturer, Maritimo.

After a strong 2020, 2021 will see new model world releases, new model announcements, more facility upgrades, workforce expansions and new owners joining the Maritimo family.

Maritimo finished 2020 with near-record forward orders and a prechristmas delivery of over A$13 million worth of new vessels to owners across the globe.

The first new model world release of 2021 will be the M55 flybridge motor yacht, which has already enjoyed worldwide sales success. The M55 will star at Maritimo’s on water display at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show in May, which will also host the world premiere of the S55 Sedan Motor Yacht.

“2021 will mark a momentous year for Maritimo, with as many as eight new model releases or announcements”, says Brand & Design Director, Tom Barry-cotter, with new model announcements coming as early as March when the entirely new Offshore Motor Yacht Series will be unveiled.

Late last year Maritimo began ramping up its workforce expansion after achieving unprecedented demand for vessels across the range.

Plans are also underway for further upgrades to Maritimo’s Gold Coast Australia advanced boatbuilding facilities, with the addition of a Maritimo Technology & Experience Centre, including a conference centre, design studio and additional working office space.

Maritimo Racing’s offshore powerboat division is set for plenty of competition in 2021 while its offshore yachting division is also finalising competition entries, including the Hamilton Island Race Week. www.maritimo.com.au
