Milestone moments
Just recently they announced the sale of a number of major superyachts above 40 metres in length , and $ 50 million in value , developing a reputation for being able to source and deliver , particularly from Europe , high quality vessels built offshore to satisfy clients ' needs for the best luxury vessels available in the world .
As soon as the Ray White name is spoken , it ’ s automatically assumed that the person is referring to Ray White as real estate agents . But few realise that Ray White can also mean selling marine craft through our affiliate business , Ray White Marine . Some nine years ago , Rick Rodwell approached the family and asked if we ’ d support him in commencing a business that related to the buying and selling of boats . Ray White Marine would be the perfect marketing image ! I loved his ambition and so Rick began his business and it wasn ’ t too long before his son , Brock , joined him .
A huge credibility for Ray White Marine is Sydney Harbour . No boat too big or too small . In most startup businesses , early boat sales are modest in size but Rick and his son had other ambitions .
How exciting have Brock ’ s recent high-end sales been ? Fulfilling a dream of many successful Australians and being able to satisfy their ownership expectations of internationally renowned brands .
With offices in Sydney , Melbourne , Gold Coast , the Whitsundays and Auckland , Ray White Marine is expanding its presence . It will be bringing the only RIVA Lounge approved outside Europe ( at such locations as Monaco Yacht Club and Gritti Palace Venice ), to the site of its future Queensland headquarters at the Mantaray Residences and Marina development on the Gold Coast Broadwater . This development will zzintroduce its high end database along with Ray White real estate clients to the world class penthouses and superyachts marina facilities being established .

It has been a joy to see the integration of Ray White Marine with a number of our businesses who have had the opportunity to participate in marine sales due to their locations e . g . Ray White Whitsundays .
Rick and Brock have been wonderful in the way they have encouraged the participation of so many of our businesses . It ’ s deepened the service Ray White now gives to the community .
We ’ re very proud their ambitions tie in beautifully with the entire Ray White Family .
Success didn ’ t take long to be achieved . Was this due to the respect the Ray White name has in business ?
Rick and Brock became champions in the marine broking industry . They have become the Australia and New Zealand exclusive distributorship for leading global luxury yacht manufacturer Ferretti Group - firmly establishing the Ray White Marine brand in the marine industry for both new and preowned vessels , including representation of the pre-eminent Italian shipyard ’ s seven brand stable and the iconic Riva marque . Adding to the product offering , exclusive distributorships for Sunreef and Technohull , the Rolls Royce of Catamarans and performance RIBs respectively , were similarly secured .
