HD Video Interviews from Thailand Yacht Show 2022 at Ocean Marina in Jomtien, Pattaya

(23 June 2022, 09:40 +07)  The Thailand Yacht Show, traditionally held annually in Phuket, was held for the first time at Ocean Marina in Jomtien, Pattaya from 9-12 June 2022.

Verventia, the event's organiser, has cut the Thailand Yacht Show in two parts, with the Pattaya component being the first and the second to take place later in the year in Phuket.

Simpson Marine had the largest presence at the show with nine yachts, two of which were making their regional premieres - Fairline Squadron 68 and Aquila 28 Molokai. The company also used TYS to launch a sailing academy in Phuket.

Princess Yachts, Azimut, V Yachts Asia and other well known brands also had a presence at the show.

In addition to the luxury yachts one traditionally sees, there were a range of smaller boats, a good variety of watersport toys - including some electric surfboards, e-boats and sea scooters, as well as some classic cars.

According to Verventia, 5 yachts were sold during TYS Pattaya, with the most expensive - Mastermind - being worth approximately THB 180 million (around US$ 5.1 million). A local BMW dealer also reported selling 6 cars during the event.

Steven Howard of TravelNewsAsia.com sat down with some of the exhibitors to ask them what they hoped to get out of the event and to learn more about their business here in Thailand.
