Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show 2016 welcomes a record line-up of boats.
Following recent improvements to the rules for international yachts visiting Pattaya, and the Pattaya-Hua Hin ferry service set to be launched in early 2017, Thailand’s marine tourism industry is poised for dramatic growth. Government investment is at an all time high – a sign of the importance of marine tourism to the national economy – while the record-setting 5th edition of the Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show is set to boost marine tourism in the Gulf of Thailand and showcase Thailand’s marine industry to the world.
With an expanded line-up of 28 boats in-the-water and more onshore, the 6,000 expected visitors will experience a world-class marine and lifestyle festival from 24 to 27 November, 2016.
Ranging from small day boats upto superyachts, the three largest boats on display at this year’s show include the Monte Carlo Yachts 86, Princess 88 Motor Yacht and the largest of all – the 41-metre Ocean Emerald, which stared in the recent Hollywood movie, Point Break (2015).
Sail and power, large and small (and everything in between), the show offers something for all and also includes a selection of brokerage yachts. International boat brands from Europe and the USA will display alongside the best local builds from Thailand’s much revered boat building industry, a sign of the increased interest in boat ownership, and a driver of future charter market growth.

Leading residential community developer, Sunplay Asia, has launched the first phase of its pioneering active lifestyle retirement estate with the unveiling of The Heights, a luxury low-rise condominium development in Bangsaray, on Thailand’s Eastern Seaboard.
Located in a private gated community just 90-minutes from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi International Airport, The Heights is the THB 1.25 billion first phase of the ambitious Sunplay Bangsaray development, a 175 rai (28-hectare) site with approximately 12,500 sqm to be used for the 70 freehold units and 5,000 sqm reserved for The Sunplay Club and surrounding gardens.
Owned by Thai property company Sunplay Bangsaray Property Co., Ltd, Sunplay Bangsaray is managed by former Chairman of Golden Land, Chris Delaney – now Managing Director of Sunplay Asia. Sunplay Asia have partnered with specialist Australian luxury senior living community developers MacArthur Projects and a group of local investors in the development of the project. Colliers Thailand have been appointed as Lead Agents for Thailand.
“Sunplay Bangsaray provides residents and investors a new concept in retirement living set in a private estate specifically designed to provide an active lifestyle for the over 50’s, offering luxury, convenience and independence,” said Mr. Delaney.
“We are delighted to be launching in Bangsaray where we believe the convenience of the location – quiet, peaceful and just 20-minutes from sailing, golf, dining and world-class medical amenities – fits perfectly with our five-star facilities. We will offer personalised benefits through our First Class Concierge service and our authentic hospitality will be a compelling proposition for buyers.”

Master-planned and designed by renowned Thai architects A49, The Heights Bangsaray is a collection of 70 one-, two- and three-bedroom contemporary condominiums boasting branded fixtures and appliances. The residences are surrounded by lush tropical gardens and lotus ponds that offer comfort and privacy on a gently sloping hillside with panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes and the Gulf of Thailand.
The entire development will feature jogging and biking trails along its undulating pathways as well as the community Sunplay Club with restaurants, bars, pools, and tennis courts. Future plans include the addition of luxury villas and exclusive pool villas to be launched early in 2017.
“What we are creating is a first for Thailand, certainly on this scale and focusing on a luxury, active lifestyle. Thailand is a very attractive retirement destination and currently the market is underserved for active retirees looking for a safe, secure and high quality option, either for investment or as a place to live full time.”
Sunplay Bangsaray is 30-minutes drive from the fast expanding U-Tapao Rayong-Pattaya International airport, which already offers direct flights to China, Singapore and Malaysia and will be expanded to connect with other regional destinations. A planned high-speed rail link between Pattaya and Bangkok will further reduce travel time to the development.
Despite easy access from the capital, Bangsaray retains a quiet village community feel and is known for its fresh seafood restaurants, tranquil atmosphere and the genuine warmth of the local people.
“Life never feels rushed in Bangsaray,” adds Mr. Delaney. “For active residents and their guests, the area also offers abundant sport and leisure activities. There are 10 world-class golf courses within a 30-minute drive, Ocean Marina Yacht Club and the Royal Varuna Yacht Club are both nearby, the beach itself is relaxed and tranquil, and the hills of Bangsaray are perfect for cycling enthusiasts.”
The Heights Bangsaray is launching with special offer unit prices starting from THB 108,000 per sqm fully fitted. The condominiums and Sunplay club are scheduled for completion in H2, 2018.

Free sailing exhibition showcasing photos of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej was a master craftsman building 25 boats, and a skilled sailor sailing many of his boats, and others, with a number of unmatched successes.
His Majesty competed in the 4th SEAP Games (today known as the SEA Games) in his own-built OK dinghy, “Vega 2”. Held in Chonburi the competition was tough and His Majesty won the gold-medal, beating out all international competition. What is even more special is that His Majesty tied for first place with his daughter, HRH Princess Ubol Ratana.
Prior to winning that gold medal in 1967, His Majesty set out on a sailing adventure which, at that time, was unheard of. On 19th April, 1966 His Majesty left Klai Kangwon Palace in Hua Hin on a challenging journey across the Gulf of Thailand, finishing 16 hours later in Sattahip. This feat was accomplished in another of His Majesty own-built boats, “Vega 1” (another OK dingy).
His Majesty built boats in a number of other classes too and also created his own class, the “Royal Mott Class”, in which he designed three boats – Mod, Super Mod and Micro Mod.
In honour of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej there will be a special four day sailing exhibition during the boat show, showcasing His Majesty’s sailing achievements as well as historic photos of His Majesty sailing. The exhibition is FREE and open to the all.
The show and exhibition will be open daily from 11:00 to 19:00 Thursday 24th November to Sunday 27th November.

By the time that the selected models arrive to Thailand, they are already sold to Clients who believe in Simpson’s long-term expertise and advice. This is unlikely to happen anywhere else in the region.
MCY86 – one of four sold into Asia by Simpson Marine recently and the first into Pattaya, will be on display at the 2016 Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show.
During this year’s edition of the Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show, Simpson Marine will display a new Monte Carlo Yachts 86, which is making her premiere in Pattaya. In a class of its own, the MCY86’s exterior spaces are an exemplary expression of Monte Carlo Yachts’ style and vision. She is graced by inimitable design and a regal personality expressed by spacious guest areas, unprecedented levels of equipment, and decors and furnishings from the very best that Made in Italy and Made in France has to offer. Her spacious interiors are decorated in precious woods and material, hand-made Venetian Murano glass mosaics and also the best materials used.

MCY86 won the category ‘Best Worldwide Production Motor Yacht over 25 metres’ at the Asia Boating Awards 2014 and also ‘Best Motoryacht 80-89 ft’ at the 2014 Editor’s Choice Awards at Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

The Monte Carlo 6 is the very close link between Monte Carlo Yachts and Monte Carlo takes the shape of supremely living spaces and the inestimable thought given to the choice of materials and trims. Amongst the many points of excellence of the MC6, one of it is her flybridge which is astonishing in terms of equipment and dimensions, with a large comfortable sundeck and living area that can accommodate up to ten people, all perfectly protected by the rigid T-top.

Extended stay for foreign yachts opens up the region to more international yachts, contributing to the local economy and tourism
Marine tourism in the Gulf of Thailand is about to boom. The 5th Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show – held 24-27 November, 2016 and set to be the biggest yet with more boats on display than ever – and new improved Customs rulings allowing visiting foreign vessels to stay longer in-country – together lay solid foundations for marine tourism growth in Pattaya and surrounds.
Pattaya’s multi-billion baht marine industry is poised to grow exponentially over the next few years.
“Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show has grown steadily since it was launched five years ago. The event is a key business event for the marine industry and in addition to welcoming many domestic visitors each year the event has grown to attract many international visitors also. The confidence that the international community has in this event and Thailand’s burgeoning marine industry underscores its potential and importance to the Thai economy,” said Dr. Tirachai Pipitsupaphol, Managing Director, Ocean Property.
Supporting Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show’s aim to make Pattaya the Riviera of Asia, to promote marine tourism in the region and showcase the Gulf of Thailand, is a new ruling on the temporary importation of visiting foreign yachts.
“In the past foreign vessels entering Pattaya were given a relatively short period for temporary importation. This has now changed. The Customs Department in Pattaya have agreed that the “Temporary Importation Permit for Visiting Foreign Vessels” will allow international yachts a period of six months stay which can be extended in-country, opening up the region’s potential to visiting yachts from overseas,” said Mrs. Montira Cherdchoo, Director of Map Ta Phut Customs House, The Customs Department.
This means that Pattaya will become a hub for regional marine tourism and is set to welcome more than 1,000 international yachts and superyachts annually in the near future, boosting Thailand’s tourism revenue.
“Many people are not aware of the beauty of this region. There are 187 islands in the Gulf of Thailand with 43 within one hour by boat of Ocean Marina itself. The cruising grounds are spectacular and the extended say allowed for foreign yachts will help open up the region. This is a very positive move and the region is ready to welcome more than one thousand foreign yachts annually,” added Dr. Tirachai.
Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show is a large-scale international event that helps to drive marine business growth in the Gulf of Thailand. Pattaya’s marine tourism fundamentals are strong and the region is expecting to become a leading marine tourism destination.
The four-day Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show will showcase upto 20,375 sqm of onshore and in-water exhibition space, including leading international boat and superyacht brands Admiral, Azimut Yachts, Beneteau, Cranchi, CNB Yachts, Jeanneau, Lagoon, Monte Carlo Yachts, Prestige, Princess Yachts, Sanlorenzo, Viking Yachts and Wider, as well as a large selection of brokerage yachts, and displays by marine products and suppliers, lifestyle products and services, luxury property and more. One of the highlights of the show is that visitors can view and walk through a boat, and if interested can go out for a test drive – something other shows in the region do not offer.
The 5th Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show will take place 24 – 27 November, 2016 at Ocean Marina, Pattaya, Thailand.

The Princess yacht range includes sophisticated FLYBRIDGE motor yachts, dynamic V CLASS SPORTS YACHTS, ground-breaking S CLASS SPORTBRIDGE yachts, and stately M CLASS superyachts.

CRAFTED IN PLYMOUTH, ENGLAND
Perched on the edge of the English Channel lies the city of Plymouth, where we established our home in 1965. Today Princess shipyards cover an area of over 1.1 million square feet, an area rich in British maritime heritage. In fact, South Yard, where our M Class Superyachts are constructed, is a former naval yard dating back to the 17th century. From the outset, our goal has been to meticulously sculpt our yachts around our owners’ enjoyment of them. Such dedication and attention to detail resonates deeply with our Plymouth craftsmen. Over 2,050 people, each possessing a mastery of their skill, fastidiously realise this vision in our shipyards. Through a culture of innovation, our yachts are not only some of the most technically-advanced in the world but also the most beautifully realised.
BEAUTY IS ALWAYS IN THE DETAIL
We are determined to develop ever more ingenious ways to ensure every last millimetre of your boat is ergonomically sound, highly practical, and spatially perfect. Once our team of naval architects, designers and engineers have determined a design, our craftspeople fastidiously bring it to life. Every beautiful detail is crafted and finished within our Plymouth shipyards. This enables us to consistently monitor quality throughout each build. Seeing is believing though, so we invite future owners to pay us a visit and see beauty in progress through their own eyes.
DEEPLY INGENIOUS, THE PRINCESS DEEP-V HULL
Our pioneering deep-V hulls are born from our naval architect’s obsession with exceptional seakeeping and voluminous space. Their sculpted form is shaped from a lightweight, resin-infused hull composite which can create greater internal volume compared to standard hull production methods. This ingenious design ensures it requires less power and burns less fuel to achieve its maximum design speed. Such precision thinking gives rise to the most exhilarating performance, defined by its efficiency, agility and poise. So whether you’re slicing through the seas at 40 knots or navigating stormy waters – a foundation of superior engineering rides with you.
PRINCESS 42
The Princess 42 has become an iconic Princess model, setting the benchmark for fast motor yachts in her size range. An ideal family cruiser, she combines confident sea-keeping with strong performance and class leading interior space for elegant entertaining. The latest 42 adopts a lean and more dynamic profile with wrap-around windscreen and larger, sleeker windows and portlights. A wealth of design detail adorns the interior too, from the well-proportioned, teak-laid steps linking the cockpit and flybridge, to the impressively wide side decks and thoughtfully positioned hand rails. She’s also wonderfully practical, with a large lazarette and storage below the cockpit seat, and an easily accessible engine room. Beautifully constructed and immaculately finished, the 42 is the very essence of a modern Princess motor yacht.
PRINCESS 52
Giving extraordinary volume for its size, the 52 provides a palatial full beam master suite plus two further generous cabins. The upper accommodation level offers a new galley aft arrangement equally able to cater for intimate internal dining or lavish cockpit parties. Her resin infused hull will offer owners performance and efficiency in equal measure. The steering is so instinctive and light that you have to remind yourself you are at the helm of a 54ft, three-cabin boat. The Princess 52 shows agility as well as robust seakeeping and is an excellent advert for what a really well designed shaft installation can do.

PRINCESS 56
Leading the display at the Singapore Rendezvous event is our very own Princess 56, the perfect yacht for entertaining family and friends. Princess 56 is something of a breakthrough in layout & features. The fine vessel, which also happens to have one of the best range to cruise in the region, perfectly combines a spacious and exquisitely appointed interior with an exhilarating performance and highly sociable exterior deck layout. Renowned for making the most of every foot of hull length, the 56’ offers you an unrivalled level of space and ability, perfect for entertaining family, friends and corporate guests. The interior is crisp and contemporary and finished to the highest quality to create an interior ambience of a much larger vessel.
As with all Princess Yachts, the vessel is the result of a rigorous and uncompromising approach to design and manufacture from pioneering hull designs to cutting-edge engineering and production techniques. The trademark Princess deep-V hull ensures confident seakeeping and the very latest hull design delivers lower planing speeds, improved efficiency and superior performance.

PRINCESS 72 MOTOR YACHT
The 72 Motor Yacht perfectly combines the elegance and stature of a true motor yacht with an agile, class leading performance. A galley that can be fully enclosed or open plan, side access door from the help and generous separate crew cabin allow the 72 to be crew run, whilst good sight-lines and fingertip controls ensure that owner operation is equally feasible. Full air conditioning is standard, as is the flybridge crane that augments bathing platform dinghy stowage. This is Princess packaging at its best.
Princess 72 Motor Yacht will be on show at the Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show 2016.
PRINCESS 88 MOTOR YACHT
Our 88 Motor Yacht personifies the finest qualities of Princess design and craftsmanship. Her unique deep-V hull design balances incredible fuel efficiency with breathtaking performance and agility. The vast flybridge and cockpit areas are exceptionally appointed for formal or social occasions. And from the saloon, at the touch of a button, a balcony unfolds over the sea, providing the perfect spot to enjoy a sunset.
Exquisitely handcrafted and furnished to your tastes, her vast interior is a real joy. Light reaches into every area with panoramic windows on the main deck. The expansive saloon and dining area create a wonderfully sociable space. On the lower deck you have a choice of four or five ensuite cabins, each one exuding the authentic Princess feeling of world-class quality.
Generously proportioned crew quarters aft incorporating a captain’s cabin, bunk cabin and crew mess complete her impressive layout.
PRESTIGE
Created over 20 years ago, Prestige is now an internationally recognized brand, present on four continents through a network of specialized dealers trained by the shipyard. In 2010, the Prestige 60 was elected “European Boat of the Year” by a jury of marine professionals. In 2011, the new Generation 2 introduced advances in design quality, interior furnishings, fit and finish. In 2016, Prestige 630 was featured as one of the 11 most captivating yachts from the 2016 Cannes Yachting Festival.
Each new advance leads to another. Now, the Prestige range is available in three distinct model lines: Flybridge, Express, and Sport Top. If size is an indicator of success, Prestige is now moving toward creating models close to 70 feet in length, Prestige Yachts. Prestige has become a style, a global brand.
PRESTIGE 420
Following the trend of the latest PRESTIGEs, the PRESTIGE 420 benefits from a signature aesthetic that is dynamic and unsurpassed.
Highlighted on the exterior by her light Flybridge and timeless lines, the style of the GARRONI design cabinet is also beautifully expressed on the interior, cleverly combining the bright open living spaces on the main deck with the very private spaces of the two cabins with separate entrances, a unique feat on a 42-footer.
The secure and comfortable hull designed by Jernej Jakopin for the Volvo Penta IPS 400 engine delivers on its promises with exceptional sea keeping and maneuverability.

PRESTIGE 500
Balanced forms and overall expression affirm power and security, the Flybridge of the PRESTIGE 500 is the point of pride of the boat, with a unique size for a motor yacht of 50’. Her interior layout features two concepts that define her personality: an immense living space on a single level, benefitting from a spacious integrated galley that services both the interior and exterior, and her owner’s suite bathed in light by two large panoramic windows, with an independent access and a very large adjoining head and shower compartment.
A great success, and equipped with a propulsion pod, this PRESTIGE has won more awards than any 50-footer in the world!

Under the supervision of the Royal Thai Navy these islands are kept in pristine condition with no facilities onshore and no overnight stays allowed.
Koh Phai has a green hilly interior, at its widest point is 1.5km and has a 150 metre summit on top of which stands a lighthouse. The island is famous for its palm-fringed white-sand beaches and has possibly some of the best snorkeling and divining with natural corals of anywhere in the Pattaya area.
