New Vetus centre for the south of France

C2 Marine, a marine dealer in the south of France, is becoming a ‘Vetus Centre’, supporting Vetus (part of the Yanmar Marine Recreational Business Unit) across the Pyrénées-Orientales, Aude and Haute-Garonne regions. C2 Marine will oversee all the sales outlets within these areas.

C2 Marine has been a Yanmar Marine International dealer for over 25 years and has worked with marine propulsion and onboard systems specialist Vetus for over eight years.

As a Vetus Centre, C2 Marine can offer sales of engines and genuine spare parts, professional maintenance services and certified training, as well as expert technical advice.

In 2025, C2 Marine opened a new 400sqm mechanical facility.

Hugo Ferlay, director at Vetus France, says: “C2 Marine has greatly impressed us via its work with Yanmar, so we already highly regard their hard-working and professional team and have felt well supported and impressed with their facilities. Their ethos perfectly aligns with Vetus, and we look forward to watching the relationship further develop.”

Cédric Chorlay, director at C2 Marine, says: “Becoming a Vetus Centre in France ensures we can further enhance customer experience and cements our long-term commitment to supporting both Vetus and Yanmar. C2 Marine is now ideally positioned to support future growth, provide advanced training, and deliver exceptional customer service well into the next generation.”

In 2025, Dutch equipment distributor Vetus detailed how it was driving growth through product renewal and taking a more dynamic strategy to marine marketing.
