THIRD 'LAGOON DEALER OF THE YEAR' AWARD MARKS RECORD YEAR FOR THE CATAMARAN COMPANY

Immediate Release: October 2004

Lagoon America recently presented the third consecutive Lagoon Dealer of the Year award for the most Lagoons sold in the United States in 2004 to The Catamaran Company, marking its highest sales revenues since inception in 1989.

The industry award coincides with record sales over the last three years, which will see the world's largest exclusive retailer of catamarans, sell over 100 yachts in 2004 and push company sales to the $85 million mark.

"The Catamaran Company has again proved its status as the most dynamic and committed sales organization in North America and we are proud to present these awards to President Hugh Murray," said Lagoon America in handing over the award to President, Hugh Murray, at the recent Annapolis Boat Show in Maryland, United States.

The awards reflect The Catamaran Company's status as the leading meeting place for catamaran buyers and sellers in North America.

Staley Weidman again emerged as 2004's top selling Yacht Broker for the most Lagoon Catamarans sold in a calendar year in North America. Read more about this exciting double-achievement, here.
