Prout, First in Catamarans!
Hello!
Wishing you the best for the New Year 2009, I would like to announce that I have joined the PROUT INTERNATIONAL Catamaran Company, where I will be in charge of sales and marketing of their fantastic lineup of new PowerCatamaran designs. Under new ownership, PROUT International has moved its production facilities to South Africa, Thailand, and China where they can now build the highest quality boats at lower pricing than any of its competitors.
I just returned from making my personal inspection of PROUT's shipyard facilities along with the current boats they have under construction. I am absolutely blown away by what I saw. The shipyard facilities are new, and they are utilizing the latest fiberglass infusion technology which produces very light, but strong hulls. The design choices are extensive, and the "fit-and-finish" of the completed boats is superb! Yard management and workers are dedicated to bringing you the ultimate in value for your purchase dollars!
Though my department is in charge of PowerCats, PROUT continues to build excellent cruising Sail Cats, which have made them famous for 25 years. There is also a new "Super-Yacht" facility now taking orders for mono and multi-hull motoryachts from 100 to 350 feet. My brokerage boats will be handled by our sister company, YACHT DEPOT.
Please contact me to let me know what your current needs might be, and allow me to present the PROUT International selection of PowerCats from 50 feet to 120 feet for your consideration! I look forward to a continuing relationship with you and the opportunity to serve you for you boating needs!
Cordially,

January 9 Press Release: Factory Direct to you!

Prout, First in Catamarans!
FACTORY DIRECT TO YOU!
Did you know?
- Dealers typically add 15% to 25% to the price you pay for Catamarans. The moment you take delivery of your new yacht you lose this value to the middleman.
- Prout has eliminated this costly dealer distribution network by having in-house catamaran professionals who operate globally and will guide and advise you throughout the process of creating the yacht of your dreams from our extensive product line of power and sailing multihulls. You will also receive after sales service and back up factory direct, globally.
- Prout Catamarans are built in China, Thailand, and South Africa where labor is a fraction of the cost of Europe but the quality is equal or better. Using this competitive advantage Prout is able to produce labor intensive, high end touches to its yachts such as: compound curved high tensile safety glass in the saloon windows (versus inexpensive Plexiglas), inlaid woods, marble countertops, to name a few. Because Prout is able to purchase materials from sources in the Far East at substantially reduced prices we can afford to deliver top quality Custom yachts at great prices.
- The re-sale value of Prout Catamarans is well protected because the used market is not flooded with inexpensive charter versions that drive the price down, even if the yacht has never been chartered.
