ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE NEW BUIZEN 60

Some 12 years after the announcement of the last new Buizen model, plans for the new Buizen 60 were unveiled at an owners function at the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia on the 29 th October 2008 .

Some 18 months in the design process, the new 60 has been designed in collaboration with Anthony Starr Design Studios, Peter Lowe Design (Naval Architects) and the Buizen team.

Details of the new Buizen 60 are outlined in the Press Release dated 29 th October and in the Brochure which can be downloaded from this site.

On the 22nd May at the Marriott Surfers Paradise, the Marine Industry's Gala Dinner was held to announce the prestigious National Marine Award recipients for 2008.

The Buizen 48 Series 3 not only won it's category for "Sailing Cruising Over 10m" but also took out the top award of "Boat Of The Year (Sail) 2008".

Eddy Buizen was on hand to accept the top industry award, and with his proud and teary wife Jeanette watching on, made a wonderful acceptance speech thanking all in the industry who had supported his company and his yachts over the last 30 years.

Steve Howe said, "It is a thrill for the company to have won the industry's top award and wonderful that the industry had finally bestowed upon Eddy Buizen the official recognition he so justly deserved".

"The Buizen 48 is a boat that is built to an outcome not a price point and the focus on the hand built quality and integrity that goes into every yacht is the passion that drives the company", Steve said.

Quality is not a new innovation and the mantra of "faster, cheaper, smarter" has never applied to Buizen Yachts. To build the yachts to the standard Buizen's have become renowned takes time and commitment, and this approach is what continues to attract customers who are looking for more in a yacht than what a production yacht typically offers.

We are always confident that our boat's build quality was recognised as equal to the very best available anywhere else in the world, our customers told us so and now the National Award helps to confirm it.
