Bahraini builder returning to DIBS with updated range

Bahraini boatbuilder H Al Dhaen has confirmed its participation, after a break of some years, at the 2023 Dubai International Boat Show (DIBS) taking place from March 1-5 at Dubai Harbour Marina, where it will be displaying an updated range of designs.

The 29th edition of DIBS will be H Al Dhaen’s largest participation in the show since it first exhibited at DIBS in 1993.

H Al Dhaen Boats was established four decades ago and is active in both the leisure and commercial boat markets; examples of its models can be seen all over the GCC and South East Asia boating markets.

Recently the company has invested in multiple new production processes, including CAD and CNC, in order to implement the latest construction technologies and to improve production efficiency.

“Our team has been working relentlessly for many months in getting our new models ready for the Dubai International Boat Show,” says CEO Abdulla Al Murbati. “Our boats will offer clients and visitors the opportunity to visit and experience our true craftsmanship and latest onboard technology.”

H Al Dhaen Boats will be displaying a new generation 365CC (Center Console) Wavebreaker, a popular model for many years in the GCC and further afield. The 11.5m boat features a deep V performance hull that delivers high speed and comfortable handling, in addition to a spacious forward cabin, making it the ”ultimate high-speed family boat available today in the market,” the company says.

H Al Dhaen Boats will also display a 310CC, which the company describes as the ”perfect choice for solo-boaters, family excursions and fishing trips with friends”, and a scale model of its latest 410 Transporter vessel. The 12.5m multi-purpose vessel was built to serve various sectors such as commercial, tourism and military.
