Classic Yachts opening new office locations
|
|
Classic Yachts International will be opening two new office locations, first in Fort Myers and later in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area. The new offices will be full-service Grand Banks dealerships, as well as offering yacht brokerage services. Classic Yachts International currently is the Grand Banks dealer on Florida’s east coast, with offices in Fort Lauderdale and Fort Pierce.
The company’s expansion follows its appointment as the dealer for Grand Banks Yachts in the west coast of Florida sales territory. The company will offer the complete line of new Grand Banks Yachts, as well as select pre-owned brokerage yachts. Previously, the Grand Banks dealership on Florida's west coast was handled by Ireland Yacht Sales, Sanibel, Florida.
“We are very excited to represent Grand Banks Yachts on both coasts of Florida,” says Steve Fithian, President of Classic Yachts International. “We’re going to implement our many years of professional Grand Banks knowledge and expertise that has worked so well on the east coast, and replicate it on the west coast.” The company has signed on Mr. Brian Duffy to head the Fort Myers sales team. A search for a new location and staff for the Tampa/St.Petersburg area office is underway.

Classic Yachts International 2008 Rendezvous
|
|
Classic Yachts International’s annual Grand Banks Rendezvous took place at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, FL on March 13 16, 2008. The weather was picture-perfect sunny and breezy and the Ocean Reef Club provided a delightful setting for this year’s event.
An early evening cocktail party welcomed attendees on Thursday and got the Rendezvous off to a great start. In addition to the Classic Yachts International staff and representatives from Grand Banks, almost 40 people participated in the Rendezvous during the four-day event.
Seminar highlights included presentations on new Grand Banks models, marine electronics, a panel discussion on service, and cruising the Inside Passage to Alaska. Saturday events saw attendees enjoying a sea trial aboard a new Grand Banks 55 Eastbay SX. Later that day small groups of women received hands-on boat handling instruction aboard a new Grand Banks 47 Heritage CL.
The 2008 Grand Banks Rendezvous was capped by an elegant dinner and open bar, followed by the traditional farewell ceremony and gift drawings.
