Thailand Closes Year with a Series of Events in Pattaya and Phuket

As 2024 draws to a close, Simpson Marine has again demonstrated our commitment to showcasing Thailand as a premier yachting destination. An exciting calendar of events throughout the year, including the recent private viewing of the Sanlorenzo SX76 in Pattaya and our participation in the Thailand Boat Festival have highlighted why Thailand’s cruising grounds are capturing the attention of yachting enthusiasts across Asia.
 

A Private Viewing of the Sanlorenzo SX76 in Pattaya



In a fitting finale to the year, Simpson Marine hosted an exclusive private viewing of the Sanlorenzo SX76 in Pattaya. This event gave select guests an intimate experience aboard one of the successful and versatile yachts in the Sanlorenzo fleet. Known for its elegant design and long-range cruising capabilities, the SX76 embodies the perfect balance of performance and luxury, offering the ideal vessel for extended cruising adventures in the pristine waters of Thailand and beyond.

The Sanlorenzo SX76 has many innovative features, including an open-plan layout and seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces. Perfect for exploring the region’s abundant islands and untouched coastlines, this yacht is a natural fit for Thailand’s world-renowned cruising grounds. Pattaya, with its strategic location and growing marine infrastructure, provided the perfect backdrop for the event. Attendees had the opportunity to immerse themselves in the luxurious lifestyle the SX76 offers, while exploring the unique cruising opportunities that Thailand’s eastern seaboard provides.


A Standout Presence at the Thailand Boat Festival



In addition to the SX76 private viewing, Simpson Marine played a key role in the recent Thailand Boat Festival, showcasing a diverse lineup of yachts.

The Sanlorenzo SL118, which is available for charter, was the largest on display. She represents the pinnacle of luxury yachting with her timeless design and spacious interiors. Alongside her, the sleek Fairline Targa 45 wowed visitors with its sporty performance and sophisticated comfort, while the Beneteau GT41 brokerage yacht added versatility to the line-up.

The Thailand Boat Festival brought together yacht enthusiasts, charter clients, and industry leaders to celebrate the country’s growing prominence as a yachting destination.
The recent events in Pattaya and Phuket not only showcased Simpson Marine’s impressive fleet but also reinforced Thailand’s status as the next big thing in Asian cruising. With its crystal-clear waters, countless islands, and world-class marinas, the country is a haven for yacht owners and charter guests alike.

Beyond its natural beauty, Thailand continues to develop its yachting infrastructure and regulations, making it easier than ever for superyachts and private boats to explore its waters. Recent updates to policies surrounding superyacht chartering and marina developments signal a bright future for the region’s yachting industry.

As we reflect on the success of these recent events, Simpson Marine is proud to be at the forefront of Thailand’s growing yachting scene. From exclusive private viewings to large-scale boat shows, we remain committed to bringing the very best of luxury yachting to this thriving destination.

With 2024 coming to a close, we are already looking ahead to 2025, with exciting new events and initiatives planned to further establish Thailand as the premier yachting destination in Asia. We will soon have the Southeast Asia premiere of the Sanlorenzo SL90A and the first-ever Bluegame yacht, the BGX63 at the Thailand International Boat Show.
