Aiata expands into the US with Nautical Ventures partnership

Nautical Ventures Group has entered into a distributorship agreement to represent Aiata boats across Florida.

The agreement establishes Nautical Ventures as the exclusive distributor for Aiata in the state.

Aiata boats are designed by a team of naval architects and designers based in Finland, with the boats manufactured at the Anadolu Motor shipyard in Turkey.

A modular design allows boaters to choose either a sun-top or enclosed cabin version.

The initial models expected to enter the Florida market include the Wayfinder 38, the Sunfinder 38 and the Sunfinder 50, placing the brand within the 35- to 50-foot segment.

Dynamic boating market

And he added that by introducing emerging brands through Nautical Ventures’ Florida footprint, the company is not only broadening the range of boating experiences available to customers but also strengthening the long-term growth and resilience of the company’s platform.

“In partnership with Aiata, a $2 billion market-cap company providing substantial financial strength, Vision Marine is positioned to redefine sophistication on the water and establish the next generation of top-tier boats that captivate the world,” concluded Alexandre.

Erol Termiyeci, sales manager US for Aiata boats, added: “Florida represents one of the most dynamic boating markets in the world and an ideal environment to introduce the Aiata brand.

“Through our partnership with Nautical Ventures, we are bringing a new approach to the adventure boating segment — one focused on extended time on the water, thoughtful onboard living spaces and strong build quality.
