A NEW CHAPTER FOR GOLD COAST CITY MARINA – AUSTRALIA’S LEADING MARINE SERVICE DESTINATION
If you’ve ever managed a major refit, maintenance program or vessel upgrade, you’ll know that one of the biggest challenges isn’t the work itself. It’s coordinating the dozens of specialists, contractors and suppliers needed to get the job done. That’s what makes d’Albora Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard (GCCM) different.
MORE THAN 90 MARINE SPECIALISTS. ONE DESTINATION
For years, Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard has built a reputation as one of Australia’s leading marine service destinations. With more than 90 specialist marine businesses operating from a single location, GCCM has become the place where boat owners can access virtually every marine service they need without leaving the site.
Whether you’re booking routine maintenance and antifoul, a full refit, mechanical works, electronics upgrades, detailing, engineering, rigging, fabrication or project management, the expertise is already here. The ability to have multiple trades working together in one location saves time, reduces downtime and simplifies what can otherwise become a complex process.
That formula has made GCCM one of the most respected marine maintenance facilities in the country, supporting owners of all vessels from cruising yachts through to superyachts, large motor yachts and commercial vessels.
NOW, A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS
Following d’Albora’s acquisition of GCCM in May, the facility has joined Australia’s largest premium marina network. The acquisition brings together two well recognised names in the Australian marine industry, creating a unique network that no other marine group can match and offering customers unparalleled scale, reach and service capabilities along the Australian East coast. For vessel owners, the most important thing to know is that the expertise, people and services that have made GCCM successful remain firmly in place. The same trusted marine professionals continue to operate throughout the precinct, delivering the specialist knowledge and hands-on experience that customers have come to rely upon.
WHAT CHANGES IS THE OPPORTUNITY AHEAD
As part of the d’Albora network, GCCM will benefit from ongoing investment, enhanced customer experiences and a long-term commitment to strengthening the facility’s position as a leading marine service hub. While preserving the foundations that have made GCCM successful, the focus now turns to building on that success and creating an even stronger future for the Gold Coast’s marine industry. The scale of the facility continues to set it apart. With extensive hardstand areas, covered work sheds, a 300-rack dry storage system, 200 marina berths and direct access to the Broadwater, GCCM offers a level of capability rarely found elsewhere in Australia. More importantly, it brings together the people, trades and expertise required to keep vessels performing at their best.
FOR BOAT OWNERS, THAT’S WHAT MATTERS MOST
When your vessel needs attention, there is real value in bringing it to a location where everything is available in one place. One destination. One team. More than 90 marine specialists working together to keep you on the water.
As GCCM enters this exciting new chapter, that commitment remains unchanged. Delivering worldclass marine services, supporting vessel owners and investing in the future of one of Australia’s most important marine precincts.
The future is bright, and d’Albora GCCM is ready for the next chapter.
