Innovative marine retailer Stefan Boating World on the Gold Coast has taken over the sole distributorship for the Chaparral brand in Queensland.
A spokesman said that by taking on the distribution rights for Chaparral, Stefan has positioned his dealership as a serious long term contender. The highly regarded U.S boat builder turned 50 this year and now holds market share in the US from 18 to 33 feet.
"With Stefan Boating World handling Chaparral in Queensland, we look forward to consolidating the strong position that we enjoy around the rest of the country," said Scott O’Hare from Chaparral Australia.
"These guys have a growing presence in Queensland and it is not surprising as they have some of the most experienced management, sales and workshop personal in the state. Their showroom is state of the art and of course when Stefan and Rose put their considerable PR, marketing and business acumen behind us, then Chaparral is sure to become Queensland’s number one sports boat brand."
"We are looking forward to Sanctuary Cove boat show and may still have a surprise new boat release to celebrate," said O’Hare.
Tim Atkins from Stefan Boating World was all praise for Chaparral, saying: "The saltwater tough range of sports boats on offer from Chaparral are well suited to the QLD boating lifestyle. The quality is obvious and the range has something for everyone. We are delighted to have Chaparral on board’.
Stefan Boating World is located at 27 Waterway Drive, Coomera and will exhibit a range of Chaparral Boats at the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show.
