The new distribution deal sees superyacht and megayacht support specialist VSS supply Rapid Marine’s full range of on-deck stowage equipment to yacht owners and crew in Italy.

“Further expanding our market for marine accessories into Europe, we are delighted to announce our new distributor for Italy is Versilia Supply Service,” says Rapid Marine managing director Mike Evers (pictured top left).

“The new deal was put together by our sales manager Neal Phillips (pictured right) following a successful METSTRADE show for Rapid Marine last November, with two large pallets of goods already on their way to Italy from our warehouse in Plymouth.

“VSS’s drive to provide exceptional service and cutting-edge trends to the superyacht market aligns with our mission to offer customers innovative solutions and seamless service throughout. We look forward to our partnership together.”

Rapid Marine’s European dealer network now includes Origin Marine in Spain, Premium Power Sport in Malta, and Belship in The Netherlands.
