Sialia Yachts appoints US dealer

Dutch boatbuilder Sialia Yachts has appointed Yacht Sales International as its official dealer and distributor in the United States.

The partnership will debut at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, taking place in Florida from 30 October to 3 November, where Sialia Yachts will showcase its flagship vessel, the Sialia 57 Deep Silence.

Sialia Yachts is known for combining innovative naval architecture with the Ampros electric propulsion system, offering silent, emission-free travel at speeds over 25 knots. The company, founded by Stanislav Szadkowski and Tomasz Gackoski, produces a range of yachts from 45 to 80 feet in length. The Sialia 57 Deep Silence has already gained significant attention in Europe, and the company’s expansion into the US market is a key part of its growth strategy. Sialia Yachts focuses on providing long-distance sailing capabilities with minimal noise and high speeds.

“The Ampros electric and hybrid propulsion system is designed for modern vessels that want to move forward by offering a cleaner, more efficient alternative to traditional propulsion methods,” Stan Szadkowski, co-founder of Sialia Yachts, tells Marine Industry News. “The system offers superior environmental performance, cost savings, and operational flexibility, making it an ideal solution for modern maritime applications.”

Yacht Sales International, with over 20 years of experience, will represent Sialia Yachts exclusively in North America. The dealership says it is committed to promoting greener marine technologies.

“We are extremely pleased with the reception of our brand and Deep Silence in the European market, and we are confident that the American market is ready for the sustainable solutions and innovative propulsion technologies we utilise in our yachts,” says Stanislav Szadkowski, co-founder of Sialia Yachts. “Our partnership with Yacht Sales International will not only allow us to connect with new clients but will primarily promote education on electric yachting and environmentally friendly practices.”

Udo Willersinn, president and co-founder of Yacht Sales International, adds: “Our partnership with Sialia Yachts reflects our commitment to revolutionising the yacht industry through eco-friendly innovations. Deep Silence is a game-changer, offering yacht enthusiasts the perfect combination of environmental responsibility and high-end performance.”

Szadkowski adds: “At Sialia Yachts, we are committed to establishing a long-term presence in North America. Beyond this exciting debut, our strategic partnership with Yacht Sales International is central to our plans. Together, we will introduce new models specifically tailored to the North American market, foster strong customer relationships, and provide exceptional after-sales support.”

The agreement between Sialia Yachts and Yacht Sales International was formalised during the Cannes Yachting Festival.
