Phoenix Marine started production five years ago at its Atlantis facility which recently expanded to about 6500m². The company currently employs about 75 staff but will look to extend further with the addition of the new power cat. Boats are marketed on an exclusive basis by Miami-based Xquisite Yachts.

Last year Tamas told IBI news that Phoenix was well placed to benefit from high demand coming from the US. Buyers were particularly interested in larger models, Tamas said.
