Corporate Events
Do you want to create a Corporate Event with a difference? As one of the leading Sydney yacht charter companies, Merit Sailing can host anything from a sail on the Harbour for your premium clients through to a product launch with a difference.
Corporations have realised that they need to try something new to lure clients and potential clients out from behind their desks in order to promote their products to them. With a corporate sailing day on Sydney Harbour, your clients will not only enjoy themselves but will remember the sailing experience and most importantly, they will remember you as their host. During the course of the sailing experience, you will be able to engage with your clients on a personal level and build the relationship that you want to have with them in order to generate and grow your business.
Some examples of the corporate events that Merit Sailing has done are;
15 May 2010 - Jessica Watson completed her solo journey around the world on her boat, Ella's Pink Lady.
