1. Please give a brief introduction on Sunseeker, the brand known for its luxurious yacht in the U.K.
This is Sunseeker manhattan 52. It is built by a team in UK.
It is the bestselling boat we brought to market place in the history of Sunskeer. So, it’s very exciting proposition.
2. It is widely reported that the yacht culture is spreading around the world.
I’m curious about how the yacht market is in Korea as well as its prospects.
We are delighted to work with Hyundai yacht, a distributor over here.
They work very hard and they had successful deals as you can see from the boat behind us.
We are expecting market to develop over time and that come through nice events and great places right down here at the river house to promote the boat and business.
3. It is common that inside yachts costs millions of dollars and only the first-class home products are chosen to be used.
Can you tell us about Sunseeker’s standard in selecting the brands for such items?
I must say we have very high quality finish in UK when we build boats.
We offer different woods, different fabrics, and different surfaces.
Colors and blanket, towels, cushions and all the decoration really compliment the boat.
I must congratulate great job you have done. Thank you.
4. We’ve noticed that Sunseeker strives to spread the yacht culture.
We'd like to know what Sunseeker pursues in terms of the value of yachts as well as its core philosophy.
Sunseeker was founded as a performance power boat builder. We continue that tradition today.
Most recently we just launched 'Hawk', a 38 foot Hawk boat. It will be capable of 70 miles per hour.
It is powered by twin outboard engine 400 mercury racing.
That would be very interesting boat to bring to the market place.
5. We've heard that the headquarters expressed great compliments for Crown Goose’s bedding that was used in Sunseeker Manhattan 52.
We are curious about the reasons for such a great compliment.
Can you elaborate what you liked the most about Crown Goose bedding?
I was just alluded to that little bit earlier. Crown Goose has done incredible job.
You really enhance the finish of the boat.
When I walked on her couple days ago and saw the finish,
I was really taken aback by how well you have done and how beautiful the art looks.
