Group Island Spirit in Thailand has been operating in various capacities for over 20 years. The company started the yacht manufacturing in Thailand in 2011 with the 2012 launch of the first Island Spirit 380. The company was producing the Island Spirit catamarans in its own factory in Thailand until 2017. From 2017 to 2020 the company was outsourcing the manufacturing. To maintain production quality and timely product delivery the company purchased Austhai Marine in August of 2020. This gave the company a dedicated manufacturing facility for Island Spirit Sailing catamarans as well as the highly successful Austhai line of commercial power catamarans. The company has delivered well over 100 boats to date and has exported vessels to 11 countries. The company is poised to continue to expand through the introduction of power and sailing catamaran models and 2022 and 2023 will see the launch of the companies’ first fully electric product offerings.
