SUPERYACHT FACILITIES New managers for GCCM The Gay family, owner of Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard (GCCM), has signed a long-term management agreement with Andrew Chapman (above right) and his company Marina Solutions. GCCM brought Chapman in last year to reset the operations of the iconic facility. Chapman says his focus has been to build and empower the great team that provides the exceptional customer service at GCCM. “With 23 years of experience, the GCCM operations set the benchmark in the Coomera Marine Precinct and we are focusing on these core values and deliverables that our customers require when they engage GCCM and our business partners around the shipyard to refit and maintain their vessels.” Bermuda dock opens for superyachts St George’s Marina and Superyacht Dock on Ordnance Island in Bermuda was officially opened on 22 nd May. The facility is able to accommodate up to ten superyachts and has a 170ft (52m) fixed concrete pier and an additional 140ft (43m) floating dock. GCCM director, Trent Gay, comments: “I am pleased to have secured Chapman and Marina Solutions to operate the facility long term as the benefits of his hands-on management style with staff, business partners and clients has been very well received. Many who have visited the marina and shipyard over the weekends are shocked to often see Chapman on the yard or in the office to ensure seamless operations for our Honourable Premier David Burt said the development symbolised the Government’s commitment to enhancing the Corporation of St George and the community. “One of our significant promises was to deliver the construction of a worldclass marina that would serve as a catalyst for Bermuda as a superyacht destination – a further step in the economic renaissance that has been taking place in the Olde Towne.” “This new marina capitalises on the prominence and strategic location customers. Chapman’s experience in marina and shipyard construction will be pivotal in the commencement of our Stage 2 Titan Yard.” GCCM has 90 business partners on site and its stage 2 development will more than double its size by adding a 20ha (49 acre) adjacent facility. Once completed, GCCM will be able to further accommodate the growing size of the Australian domestic fleet along with the influx of vessels cruising the South Pacific region including superyachts, wide beam catamarans and sailing yachts. Titan Yard will have 1,500+ tonne lift capacity and undercover refit and repair factories. Chapman has nearly 40 years of experience in marina and shipyard development and operation and actively consults around Australia and the Asia Pacific region. He has led the Marina Industries Association as president and chairman for the last 14 years and has been a director for 19 years. of Ordnance Island and will give St George’s the unique ability to provide excellent amenities to yachting visitors and jobs beyond construction in areas such as the new lounge,” he added. The project was originally conceived in October 2010 but, although an agreement in principle was made with St George’s Marina Development Ltd (the developer), a change in government led to a five year hiatus. In November 2021, a 21-year leasing agreement and PPP between the developer, the Corporation of St George’s and the Government set the ball rolling. www.marinaworld.com – July/August 2023 29
