Zayed University students with Mahmoud Itani, Marketing Manager & Communications of Gulf Craft
In November four university students from Zayed University in Dubai arrived at the Gulf Craft facility in Umm Al Quwain to learn more about yacht interior design as part of their project. They were given a discourse by their professor assisted by Gulf Craft in-house interior designers. Mr. Mahmoud Itani, Gulf Craft's Marketing & Communications Manager, gave them a tour on a newly built Majesty 56 accompanied by one of Gulf Craft's designers.
Mr. Mohammed Alshaali, Chairman of Gulf Craft, is also a patron of education. In his latest interview with Global Citizen magazine (November-December 2014 issue), he mentioned in "Running a tight ship" Gulf Craft's standing offer to pay the university fees of qualified students who are eager to study marine engineering.
