Saxdor Yachts has appointed two new dealerships, entering the Indian market with Marine Solutions and expanding into Saudi Arabia and Nigeria with Sea Pros Yachts. The new agreements mark a significant move in Saxdor’s strategy to grow its presence in regions with great potential and ‘fast-accelerating’ boating markets.

Saxdor notes that these areas are experiencing a rise in leisure marine activity, supported by increasing coastal infrastructure, strong tourism initiatives, and growing interest in boating and on-water experiences.

“We are pleased to welcome Marine Solutions and Sea Pros Yachts into our dealer network,” says Jon Hautamäki, commercial development director at Saxdor Yachts. “We are seeing growing enthusiasm for recreational boating across these high-potential regions, and these markets are fully in line with the next phase of Saxdor’s global expansion. We choose partners who are leaders in their territories and who share our customer-focused mindset, and both Marine Solutions and Sea Pros fit this vision extremely well.”

In November 2025, the Finnish shipyard announced it was expanding its manufacturing capacity with a new facility in Larsmo, Finland, to prepare for the launch of its flagship model, the Saxdor 460 GTC, which is due to make its world premiere in January 2026.

Marine Solutions is India’s longest-standing yacht dealership and boasts a presence in Mumbai and Goa. the dealership has over two decades of experience and a reputation for developing the country’s yachting culture through top-tier brands and service.

Sea Pros Yachts is known for its specialised expertise, large service footprint, and strong presence across the Red Sea and Arabian Gulf, with a new venture now extending this reach into Nigeria. The marine distributor’s portfolio includes several prestigious yachting brands.

“These collaborations reinforce our commitment to making Saxdor available where boating is growing most rapidly,” adds Hautamäki. “Together with our new partners, we look forward to welcoming new communities of boaters to the Saxdor experience.”

It has been a significant period for Saxdor, with the boatbuilder announcing new dealerships in Canada, and restructuring its Adriatic dealer network in September 2025.
