There are more than 55,000 boats in South Australia of all shapes and sizes. The boating
industry provides direct employment for around 1,800 people with an annual payroll in
excess of AUD 40 million. Exporters are not just boat-builders: other successful
businesses include surfboard manufacture for a discerning world market.
"I love what I do, and I think that's
principally why Binks Yachts is one of Australia's most successful and experienced
builders of production cruiser/racing yachts. We've been in this business for more than 40
years and every craft incorporates modern design principles, highest quality materials and
innovations along with superb craftsmanship. Binks yachts are designed for both speed and
comfort and are tailored to suit individual needs and requirements. Our recent Farr 51 and
Farr 41 models are designed in conjunction with Bruce Farr, the world's greatest yacht
designer. Over the years our firm has received many accolades. We have designed and built
three World Champion 505 Class dinghies, two World Champion 420 class dinghies and have
captured three Australian Design Awards."
