Honda Marine has signed a new partnership with Corsican boat manufacturer Fanale Marine to supply outboards across its range of boats.
Fanale Marine, founded in 2016, offers five sizes of semi-rigid boats from 6m to 10m in length.
“Honda Marine is a reference in boating, we always seek to be as close as possible to our customers by offering them technologies cutting edge as we did recently with the new Honda BF350,” said Uwe Jansen-Olliges, director of the Equipment Products division. “This new partnership with Fanale Marine allows us to expand the premium offer of Honda Marine equipped boats.
“Reliability and quality are essential criteria for our development, and it is therefore very natural that we formalise our partnership with Fanale Marine for whom these criteria are obvious.”
Pierre-André Paoli, manager of Fanale Marine, added: “The alliance with Honda Marine is in line with our industrial project.
“Since the creation of the brand and guided by our experience as a boat rental company, we have designed boats intended for intensive, sometimes rough, use. Fanale Marine emphasises marine behaviour, solidity and reliability combined with premium comfort.
“The meeting with Honda Marine and the offer of complete packages to all of our dealers constitute a guarantee of quality and a synonym for evolution.”
Honda Marine’s outboards have been developed to reduce fuel consumption. The engines range from 2.3hp to 30hp plus engines adapted to that require more torque to navigate in open water.
