Our Story

The Gold Coast City Marina & Shipyard (GCCM) was realised by people who wanted and could envisage better for all boaties, regardless of whether they were local or travelling from the other side of the ocean to get here, and regardless of whether they had a 10 ft tinnie or a 200-ft+ superyacht. This purpose-built shipyard facility was designed specifically to remove the pressure points of boating, with a laser-like focus on assembling an unrivalled choice of the very best marine contractors in the industry, operating to the highest possible standards. Over the last 25 years, we have worked hard to attract and retain leading marine service providers and multiple within each category. No other yard south of the equator has such a diverse and professionally recognised offering.
