Longstanding family boating retailers Hunts Marine recently took over the popular Kroboats marine business in Corrimal with both retail outlets now offering customers complete access to the entire CruiseCraft model line-up.

Synonymous with longstanding tradition and family boating, Hunts Marine and Kroboats have a combined 85 years experience in Australia’s marine industry and are gearing up for a strong partnership with CruiseCraft.

“Our new joint association with Hunts Marine and Kroboats is something we are very proud of,” said CruiseCraft Sales and Marketing Manager, Peter Benston.

According to Jon Hunt, both dealerships have a long tradition of family boating and enjoy a high profile among Sydney’s boating community.

“The CruiseCraft tradition of excellence is reflected in the way Hunts Marine and Kroboats have gone about their boating business. We could not ask for a better partnership going forward,” Jon Hunt commented.

Hunts Marine began with Edwin Hunt back in 1946, an engineer and well known game fishing enthusiast who established his marine retail roots at the Blakehurst site. Over the ensuing 60 years, Hunts Marine has fostered two generations of boat enthusiasts (Peter Hunt and now Jon Hunt) to become one of Sydney’s most popular dealerships offering a wide range of boat and engine options from their iconic Blakehurst location.

Kroboats shares a similar retail history having spent the last 25 years providing boating customers throughout the Wollongong region an exceptional standard of customer service. A dedication to detail, quality and customers has proven a winning formula for Kroboats who continue offer service above and beyond the boating purchase.

The standard of customer service from Hunts Marine and Kroboats is reflected in both achieving the coveted status of Yamaha Platinum Dealer. Both agents for Australia’s leading outboard brand, Hunts Marine and Kroboats were awarded the prestigious title for exceptional levels of service and sales.

The calibre of the CruiseCraft brand is well supported by both well respected Sydney marine retailers. The full line-up of CruiseCraft boats will be on display through Hunts Marine and Kroboats at the Sydney International Boat Show in August 2007.

CruiseCraft is a wholly family owned, third generation Australian boat manufacturing business, operating from their Brisbane manufacturing facility. CruiseCraft boats are distributed exclusively through a network of authorised dealers throughout Australia and selected international markets.
