Italy is a region marine electronics and equipment manufacturer WESMAR has served with its roll fin stabilizers and its stainless steel counter rotating bow and stern thrusters for many years. Today, WESMAR announced a further expansion into the Italian market with the appointment of Yachtalia of Massa, Italy, as its newest international dealer.

Yachtalia joins a network of hundreds of WESMAR dealers around the world. The company is situated on the Mediterranean Sea between the western coast of Italy and the islands of Corsica, Sardinia and Sicily. According to WESMAR’s International Sales Manager Michael Vourtsis, Yachalia will work closely with WESMAR’s Southern Europe Operations Manager Pierre Marachel.

Italy has been number one in the world for the production of large yachts for 10 years, WESMAR said. In a report from the Dept of Economics and Management, University of Ferrara, Italy, seven Italian shipyards are on the top 20 list of yacht builders in the world and accounted for one third of the world’s total large yacht orders.

“The relationship with Yachtalia enhances WESMAR’s service to our customers, both old and new, in an important boating market. We have worked diligently over the years providing top end, life changing products to the marine community. The association with Yachtalia expands this plan,” said Bruce H. Blakey, WESMAR President.
