ART Marine, one of the largest yacht distributors in the Middle East, has revealed that it sold all 17 yachts that were on display at this year's Dubai Boat Show, amounting to some US$66 million. The sales included the new flagship Azimut 103S (pictured), which was sold just a few hours after the show opened.

"I am delighted with this year's boat show results and would like to announce that although the Azimut 103S has been sold, she will stay in Dubai for a few more weeks and can be visited by appointment only," says Alessio Tumbiolo, ART Marine's CEO.

ART Marine, which is based in Dubai, offers sales, maintenance, warranty, jetty services, management, charter, marina management and consultation services for luxury yachts throughout the Middle East. The company also serves as the sole importer and distributor of Italy's Azimut-Benetti Group in Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Maldives, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar and the UAE.
