Australia's US Yachts was named as the International Dealer of the Year for 2008 during Hunter Marine's Annual Awards night, held at the Hilton Hotel St. Petersburg in Florida, Monday 8 December.

The award was presented to Matt Hayes, CEO of US Yachts by John Peterson, Director Sales and Marketing Hunter Marine.

Mr Peterson said that the Australian market was very important to Hunter Marine, and that US Yachts had made rapid progress in increasing awareness about Hunter yachts since taking over in 2003.

"We are delighted to have US Yachts as our distributor for Oceania and Matt and his team have done incredible well. Their location, at Darling Harbour in the Sydney CBD, is superb and the sales and marketing first class," Mr Peterson said.

US Yachts was also rewarded with the Platinum Award for Customer Service, the highest award possible in that category.

Matt Hayes, CEO of US Yachts, said he was thrilled to receive the awards and was particularly pleased to win the International Dealer of the Year.

"There are about 76 Hunter dealers outside the USA so we are honoured to be recognised in this way," Mr Hayes said.

"I would like to thank my hard-working team for their efforts and would also like to thank Hunter for producing such a wonderful range of yachts. We particularly look forward to promoting the new hybrid 27 Edge motorsailor and the 50 Centre Cockpit, both of which will be sensational in Australian waters," Mr Hayes stated.
