GATEWAY TO BUY FOUR YACHTS IN INNOVATIVE ORDER ANNOUNCEMENT

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:    
                                                                          
GATEWAY TO BUY FOUR YACHTS IN INNOVATIVE ORDER ANNOUNCEMENT

Gateway Yachts of Anacortes, WA; and Aspen Power Catamarans of Snohomish, WA; announce a multi-yacht deal to place Aspen yachts into Gateway’s Fractional Ownership Program.

This four boat deal provides for the immediate purchase of a new Aspen C90 along with options for two more Aspen C90’s (28’) and one Aspen C110 (36’). Total retail value of the deal exceeds $1.3 million at current list prices. 

Gateway’s innovative fractional ownership program dramatically lowers the cost of yachting, opening up the market to a much larger demographic. Gateway manages all aspects of yacht ownership providing top-quality all-inclusive service right down to the clean and shine. This successful approach is developing fierce customer loyalty and strong demand for their Fractional Ownership and Charter services.

Combining that innovative service with Aspen’s innovative yachts is the perfect match. Aspen Power Catamarans holds an international patent on their fuel efficient design that is an Innovative Award Winner. Aspens are ultra stable boats incorporating state-of-the-art electronics and other design innovations that make them the perfect year round cruiser for Puget Sound to Southeast Alaska waters.

As a part of their purchase agreement, Gateway and Aspen will be jointly marketing their innovative products in a very innovative way. Beginning at the Anacortes Trawler Fest (May 17th to May 19th), look for two identical boats stern-to-stern… if you are interested in buying a whole boat, you talk to the fine folks at Aspen, or if you prefer a professionally managed fraction then you talk to Gateway.

The Gateway Program is similar to Berkshire’s Netjets corporate jet fractional ownership program, with 1/8 fractions of Aspen and Nordic yachts bringing 5 weeks of advance scheduled use per year plus unlimited open time availability. This ground-breaking program produces the lowest cost method of ownership there is, less expensive by far than sole ownership, an equivalent amount of charter, or even most fly-to-destination vacations.

The program’s concierge level service creates a better ownership experience, and an all-new fleet backed by quality manufacturers ensures high operability. Turning a turbulent economy upside-down, this program proudly creates and supports jobs right here in Washington State.

These yachts are the most fuel efficient in the industry; fractional ownership is inherently green; and that makes this program the most environmentally friendly power yachting experience possible.
