Based in Dubai, Smart Own is an international boats & yachts dealer that provides “factory direct” passenger boats & luxury yachts to individual and corporate clients around the world. Smart Own supplied passenger boats are popular worldwide for their reliability, competitive price and versatility. The company offers an outstanding fleet of commercial ferries ranging for the highly popular GC Touring 36 (23 seats capacity) to the Sea Bus 85 (140 seats capacity).
The company has a long and illustrious history and has been dealing with government and semi-government organizations, corporate entities, beach resorts and private owners to whom it provides consultancy and advice for all their marine requirements. “We do not seek ‘quick deals’ at Smart Own FZE,” says Toufic Hobeika, partner of Smart own. “Our clients have established long term business relationship with us thanks to our advanced knowledge of the African market, our customer dedication and corporate integrity,” he says. “We offer boats that are simple, uncomplicated, robust, easy to navigate and with a maximized seating capacity. Because we know that is what Africa needs.”
The company has gained a sizable share of the African marine market by offering quality commercial and touristic boats with factory direct prices from Gulf Craft, the leading manufacturer of fiberglass boats in the UAE.
All passenger boats supplied by Smart Own are customized to the client’s requirements who can choose from a wide range of setups and options. “We understand buyers of commercial boats require full customization to accommodate their business needs,” says Toufic Hobeika.
Hence the company offers a wide choice of adaptations like:
• Engine configurations (inboard/outboard, diesel or petrol, two stroke or four stroke
• Multiple seating layouts (back to back, bus, lounge, restaurant, rounded)
• Open air or closed decks
• Dozens of gel coating and company custom logos
• A wide range of essential, comfort or luxury equipment to choose from.
African customers have been extremely happy dealing with Smart own. “Thanks a million,” said Jaji Olusegun of Sea Coach Express in Freetown, Sierra Leone. “I am very glad and pleased the way Smart Own has handled things for me so far,” he confirmed.
Therefore, it is no coincidence that Smart Own has sold Gulf Craft passenger boats in all five continents, including Africa. Indeed, very few shipyards build vessels of such maneuverability and versatility. The Gulf Craft Touring line can be made as a passenger, search & rescue, patrol, marine ambulance, water bus, restaurant ship or scuba diving boat.
Whether you own an established marine transportation company or you are planning to start your first water taxi in Africa, you must speak to Smart Own the “Smart” choice for your marine business.
