The superyacht industry is not a huge market but it is a very niche market for wealthy people. In a year, we build around 14 yachts. But what is growing in the market now is the size of the yachts.

Awareness is also a huge part of what we do. The aim is to inspire and educate our guests, school children, companies and the local community on the importance of conservation. The Conservation Club is run daily to give children an idea of our impact on the planet and how to be a little kinder to the environment. We intend to extend this to the school in our local village, while also teaching them to snorkel and dive. After several discussions with the local community, we realised that it would be an uphill battle against cultural beliefs and socio-economic priorities. But with the new generation rising, we hold strong hope for the future.
A huge thanks to ONE°15, Department of Fisheries, Hi- Tide Divers and Rimba Resort for their ongoing support.
