Discover the difference
Scotland Nautique is a leading global supplier of Nautique Boats and custom designs, training, support and spare parts.
With a unique origin that can trace back its roots and humble beginnings as a wakeboard school, Scotland Nautique has evolved into an official licensed Nautique yacht tender dealer. This journey of transformation, coupled with an unmatched after-sales, crew training and qualification centre, sets Scotland Nautique apart from its competitors in the superyacht tender industry. Join us as we explore the remarkable evolution of Scotland Nautique and how they continue to adapt to the ever-evolving yacht industry.
Scotland Nautique’s story began in 2009 when Raymond Colquhoun and Gordon Forsyth turned their passion for wakeboarding into a thriving business, known then as Loch Lomond Wakeboard. Operating as a wakeboard school, the duo soon realised the demand for high-quality wakeboard boats. In 2010, they purchased their first Super Air Nautique, a decision that marked the inception of Scotland Nautique.
Raymond Colquhoun, the four-time European wakesurf champion, brought his decades of water sports experience to the table.
This, combined with Gordon Forsyth’s extensive engineering skills, created the perfect blend of sales and product knowledge and, over the years, Loch Lomond Wakeboard transitioned into Scotland Nautique, becoming an authorised dealer for Nautique boats. This transformation not only allowed them to cater to domestic clients but also propelled them into the global yacht industry.
One of Scotland Nautique’s unique selling points is its exceptional after-sales, crew training and as a provider of specific wakeboat qualifications. Raymond Colquhoun, a British Waterski Federation SBD2 driver instructor for wakesurfing, imparts his extensive knowledge and expertise to yacht crews. This ensures that the crew can deliver the best possible experience to owners, guests, and enthusiasts looking to wakesurf, wakeboard, or waterski behind a Nautique boat.
Raymond’s ability to teach crew members not only how to drive the boat effectively but also how to set it up for the perfect wave and riding experience is a distinct advantage. This approach places the activity behind the boat at the forefront, ensuring that customers get the most out of their Nautique experience.
The company is recognised as an official yacht tender dealer by the Nautique factory, granting them access to CAD data to design custom lifting points. This meticulous approach ensures that Nautique boats fit seamlessly into the yacht’s garage or deck, with Lloyds/Cayman rated lifting points for added safety.
Adapting to changing industry trends, Scotland Nautique maintains strong client relationships by offering access to the latest Nautique models and exceptional customer service. The importance of after-sales care cannot be overstated, where intricate machinery and systems necessitate ongoing support. Moreover, it fosters trust and a sense of reliability, as customers rest assured knowing that they have a dedicated team ready to address any concerns quickly and efficiently. With the rubber stamp from Nautique as one of only two companies authorised to offer such services, Scotland Nautique’s reputation for excellent customer service precedes them.
Scotland Nautique’s presence at the prestigious Monaco Yacht Show underscores its commitment to excellence in the maritime industry. They will be exhibiting not only the impressive and versatile 2024 Super Air Nautique GS20 but also the European debut of the Centennial Edition 2025 Paragon 25. The Paragon 25 with Yanmar diesel engine offers a versatile range of features, making it an ideal yacht tender and water sports vessel. Not to mention, they will be showcasing the brand-new Roswell Marine folding yacht tower which offers yet another solution when it comes to issues of limited storage.
Scotland Nautique’s remarkable journey is a testament to its dedication to water sports and yachting excellence. With a focus on customer service, the company continues to thrive in the ever-evolving yacht industry. As they expand their offerings and support services, Scotland Nautique is poised to remain a leading name in the world of luxury yachts and Nautique boats.
