To coincide with the opening of the new Sydney office Princess has also secured the services of leading Sydney boat sales professional Mark Chapman to head the Sydney team.

Mark will join the growing team at Princess Yachts Sydney including sales professional Nicholas Bedggood and service professional Hugh Latham.
“We’re very excited to have Mark join our team, he will be critical in our efforts to grow the Princess brand in the Sydney market”, said Princess Yachts Australia Dealer Principal Alan Paterson.
“We have invested in key waterfront retail locations around the country and having our office located at Rose Bay Marina in Sydney will further strengthen our commitment to creating the leading luxury boating retail brand across Australia and New Zealand,” Mr Paterson adds.
Mark commenced his career in the boating industry over 35 years ago and during this time he has established and managed a number of the world’s leading boating brands within the Australian market. Along the way, he has developed a wealth of sales, service and engineering knowledge, teamed with a thorough understanding of the Sydney boating market.
Princess Australia says Mark’s product knowledge, honesty and integrity are teamed with his commitment to understanding the needs of his clients and provide the guidance and support to help them with their boat-ownership experience.
