LUXURY boat manufacturer Grand Banks Yachts announced yesterday that it will be buying Australian boat builder Palm Beach Motor Yacht for up to A$10 million (S$11.7 million) in a deal that could help it get off Singapore Exchange's (SGX's) watch-list.
Under the conditional put-and-call option agreement the companies entered into yesterday, Palm Beach founder Mark Richards will be appointed CEO of the enlarged group.
