Grand Banks Yachts Limited on Jun, 8 2026 announced the opening of a sales and service office in Newport Beach, California, expanding its factory-direct owner support on the United States’ West Coast.
The Singapore-listed yacht builder said the new site will serve as a hub for current and prospective Grand Banks and Palm Beach owners, providing sales guidance, service coordination, commissioning and personalised support.
Industry veteran Sarah Antona will lead sales at the facility, while USA Commissioning Manager Robert Antona, a Volvo Penta Master Technician, will oversee delivery and ownership services.
The Newport Beach location follows the company’s acquisition of a marina in Newport, Rhode Island in Jun, 2025 and complements existing U.S. waterfront facilities in Stuart, Florida; San Diego, California; and Newport, Rhode Island.
Chief Executive Officer Mark Richards said the additional site strengthens the company’s connection with customers and enhances its ability to offer factory-level assistance on both the East and West coasts.
