The superyacht Majesty 120 and next-generation Oryx 379 both sailed into Dubai Harbour Marina where they were berthed for the very first time. Commenting on this inspiring event, Acting Chief Executive Officer Abeer Alshaali said “We are proud to be part of Dubai’s much anticipated landmark, the Dubai Harbour.

The increased berth spaces for large size yachts highly benefits owners across the GCC.
