Grand Boats new RIB showroom opens on the Gold Coast.
Grand Inflatable Boats, a leading European manufacturer of luxury rigid inflatable boats and tenders, has officially opened the doors to their new boat showroom on the Gold Coast. The premium RIB brand, who specialise in centre console fibreglass RIBs and tenders from 3 – 8.5 metres, announced their arrival in Australia earlier this year, and have since welcomed the entire Grand range into the region, now available to view at their Gold Coast head office. Grand’s versatile choice of RIBs range from luxury yacht tenders, high-performance sports boats, fishing RIBs, family cruiser boats and commercial RIBs – all of which can now be viewed in-person or virtually at the newly-opened dealership in Arundel. Here, customers can enjoy a high-end boat viewing experience, peruse brand merchandise, and test the boats out for themselves on sea trials. Customers are also able to sit down with the sales team and create a boat entirely tailored to suit their preference, from the styling of upholstery and flooring, to the inclusion of onboard extras such as an electric toilet, fridge or sink & shower system, and the colour of their tubes, flooring and cushions – down to the very colour of the material stitching itself. Daniel Arscott, Sales Director for Grand Boats Australia, expressed his delight at the interest the brand has seen already: “Since opening our doors not too long ago, we’ve seen really positive levels of interest, in particular for our tenders and our sports model – the D600.
