A racy red from Awlgrip

Awlgrip® has helped a yacht owner with a unique request: to match his 64ft yacht to the iconic Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Rosso.

Working alongside professional applicator, Ruud de Groot and his team of Dutch yacht painting company, De Groot Jachtschilders, the team of professionals from Awlgrip® developed the customised Ferrari red colour to meet this challenging brief.

It was then over to Ruud to transform the yacht. Dennis Tuijnman, Area Sales Manager Benelux, UK & Ireland Distribution, Small Pro & Retail from Awlgrip, said: “The Ferrari red is an iconic colour so it was important that we were able to create a true match.

“The result is certainly eye-catching and the yacht really stands out from the crowd. We were delighted to see the finished result, with the yacht perfectly matching the red of the F12 Berlinetta Rosso.”

Since the 1920’s, Italian race cars, such as Ferrari, have become synonymous with race red, the customary national racing colour of Italy. This is the first time Awlgrip has created this iconic shade.
