World Wide Boat Brokers (WWBB), a rapidly expanding and respected yacht brokerage in the Australian marine industry, is proud to announce its appointment as the exclusive Australian dealer for Southerly Yachts.

This prestigious appointment marks a major milestone in WWBB's growth, as it enters the new boat sales market with a focus on innovation, performance, and versatility.

"We couldn't be happier with regards to this collaboration. World Wide Boat Brokers are an incredible team," said Alex Tucker, Head of Yacht Sales at Southerly Yachts.

Further cementing its position in the industry, WWBB was also recently announced as the Queensland dealer for Excess Catamarans, a dynamic brand redefining multihull sailing. These strategic partnerships signal a significant evolution for WWBB, bringing two world-class yacht brands into its growing portfolio.

"These partnerships reflect our deep commitment to offering Australian sailors something different and innovative that combine exceptional design, comfort, and performance," said Ant Kovacevic, Managing Director of World Wide Boat Brokers and qualified Naval Architect.

"We've built our business with a global mindset and were waiting for the right brands to take us into new boat sales. Southerly and Excess align perfectly with our vision and values."

"Both brands are shaking up the yachting world in their own right. They offer something truly unique, and we're incredibly proud to represent them and provide expert support and service to Australian clients."

World Wide Boat Brokers' dual appointments with Southerly Yachts and Excess Catamarans signify a significant step forward in offering Australian sailors a comprehensive and cutting-edge selection of vessels.
