Derani Yachts, a leading yachting company serving South-East Asia’s premium marine sector, is proud to announce its appointment as the Thailand and Malaysia dealer for three brands of Gulf Craft – the UAE shipyard known for its fully integrated composite yacht and leisure boat manufacturing.
This expanded partnership introduces Majesty and Nomad yachts and superyachts, together with Oryx cabin cruisers, into the Derani Yachts portfolio, marking a significant milestone as Thailand and Malaysia continue to strengthen their positions as two of Asia’s most dynamic yachting destinations.
Owners across both markets will now benefit from direct access to a comprehensive range of vessels from 10 metres (32 ft) to 55 metres (180 ft), each engineered for comfort, stability, and warm-water performance – qualities that perfectly support year-round cruising across the coastlines, archipelagos, and protected island waters of Thailand and neighbouring Malaysia.
Majesty yachts and superyachts represent the pinnacle of Gulf Craft’s luxury craftsmanship, offering spacious layouts, seamless indoor-outdoor connections, and class-leading comfort for owners seeking a Life of Excellence on the water.
Complementing the Majesty line, Nomad brings a philosophy of extended onboard living, climate-adaptive interiors, and exceptional sea-keeping – attributes ideally suited to South-East Asian conditions where humidity, variable sea states, and multi-day cruising are common.
Completing the portfolio, Oryx delivers performance, versatility, and contemporary styling for day cruising, island hopping, and social boating.
“South-East Asia continues to be one of the world’s most exciting growth regions for yachting, and partnering with Derani Yachts allows us to serve these markets with the level of expertise and local knowledge they deserve. Derani Yachts’ reputation, professionalism, and long-standing commitment to premium boating make them an ideal representative for Majesty, Nomad, and Oryx in Thailand and Malaysia,”
— Abdul Gaffar Saiyed, Regional Sales Manager at Gulf Craft.
“We are thrilled to represent Majesty, Nomad, and Oryx lines in Thailand and Malaysia. These yachts and boats are exceptionally well suited to how people cruise in South-East Asia – from family trips among the islands to extended passagemaking. Our team is committed to providing owners with the highest standards of service, support, and guidance throughout their ownership journey,”
— Håkan Lange, Managing Director of Derani Yachts.
The diverse product lines of Majesty, Nomad, and Oryx make them a compelling choice for Thailand’s active boating communities across Phuket and Krabi, Pattaya, and the wider Gulf of Thailand, as well as Malaysia’s established marine destinations including Langkawi, Penang, Lumut, Port Dickson, and the marinas along Johor’s southern coastline, complemented by outstanding cruising grounds throughout the eastern seaboard and its islands.
The collaboration with Derani Yachts broadens the options available to discerning owners, raises industry benchmarks through world-class product offerings, and reinforces the region’s growing appetite for luxury, capability, and refined craftsmanship on the water.
