A Message from Andrew Chapman
I am fortunate to have been actively involved in the superyacht and marina industry for over 30 years as President of the Marina Industry Association. I am heading the Seal Superyachts operations for the East Coast of Australia with the collaborative efforts of our awesome onsite team at GCCM. As one of the first commercial marina and shipyard in the Asia Pacific region to be awarded the highly coveted 5 Gold Anchors Global Marine Accreditation, we deliver an unsurpassed level of service to all who visit. GCCM has been awarded Best Superyacht Refit Yard by ACREW in 2022 and been accredited Superyacht Ready by the MIA in 2023.

Destinations
Australia is a land filled with great diversity and spectacular beauty. The coastline stretches over 37,000 kilometres and is linked by over 10,000 beaches (more than any other country in the world). With pristine waters, year round sunshine, award winning food and wine and some of the best diving and fishing locations found worldwide, it’s an ideal cruising destination for international Superyachts.
Such a diverse coastline means that the highlights are hard to pick but obviously the iconic Sydney Harbour and the marine wonderland of the Great Barrier Reef are the most internationally recognised.

Testimonials
M/Y SuRi
“From day one GCCM has provided us with exceptional service, expertise and all the facilities that we need to get work done in an efficient and cost effective manner. All of the marina staff are always professional and willing to go the extra mile for us and do so with a smile. The facility itself with all the trades we require under one roof enables us to get numerous quotes for the same job so that we can make informed decisions quickly. The trades that have been recommended to us by GCCM have done great work for fair prices. All of the above in conjunction with the crew activities the marina puts on (Top golf, bowling etc) along with the location of GCCM make it a great place for any superyacht to get refit work done. We look forward to returning to GCCM in the future.”

“GCCM has been the most refreshing shipyard experience I have had in many years of yachting. What a great example this facility is to the industry on how things should be done. I can highly recommend them to industry peers and look forward to returning in the near future. Everyone really made us feel at home and welcomed. All our wishes were met with a smile and helpful attitude. The crew absolutely loved the Gold Coast area.”
