Car buyers may be very familiar with dealers offering cut price deals on company demonstrators and "managing director's" cars but it is hardly common practice in the marine business.
Luxury boat builder Maritimo has ended that with a "Platinum Select" sales program on just nine of its award-winning boats -- all 2011 models that have been used only as demonstrators.
The sales program offers the chance for buyers to drive a real bargain with Maritimo dealers around the country.
Maritimo marketing director Luke Durman says the incentive will only be available on nine boats Australia wide. "These demonstration boats are all 2011 models and have been fully maintained by the Maritimo factory engineers," Durman says.
The boats available include C60 and C47 Sports Cabriolets, a 440 Offshore Convertible with Volvo Penta IPS propulsion and joystick control and a 500 and a 550 Offshore Convertible.
"We are about to launch our 2012 range and this is a great opportunity for luxury boat buyers to drive a real bargain with our dealers on the 2011 models," Durman said. "All the boats have been used only as demonstrators. They have been meticulously detailed and are in as-new condition."
All the boats include Maritimo’s five-year structural warranty and two-year general warranty. Prospective buyers can contact their local Maritimo dealer for detailed specifications on the Platinum Select range of boats.
