GX Superyachts has appointed Maurizio Magri to the new role of chief commercial officer and as a new board member.
He will lead the sales team as the company moves into the outfitting stage of its debut yacht the GX42 RPH, and continues to develop plans for thitse new GX38 Voyager.
He attended the Naval Academy of Livorno, Italy, and the Texas A&M University where he studied maritime business administration and has a career spanning 40 years.
This includes the launch of start-ups, the rescue of long-standing brands and helping others to maximise their sales potential.
Although Magri has been active across the whole maritime sector, from oil and gas to defence, his more recent focus has been on the yachting side with roles at CBI Navi, Admiral, Technomar and Wider.

has made such a splash in its first year.
“I am very excited to be leading sales at GX Superyachts, which has made such a splash in its first year,” said Magri.
“As CCO, I will be looking to help the business convert enquiries to orders after a stellar 15 months which have seen three new models launched: GX42, GX38 Voyager and GX34.
“At the same time, I am looking forward to introducing new clients to the GX Superyachts family.”
GX Superyachts founder Vladimir Zinchenko added: “Young yacht brands often struggle to make their voices heard above other, more established names, but GX Superyachts has not had this problem.
Yachting industry leader
“On the contrary, we have been overwhelmed by the degree of interest in our sleek, efficient hybrid yachts, which offer a robust response to the environmental concerns of future owners.
“This is why it made sense to recruit an experienced yachting industry leader to help us move sales to the next level. I am delighted to welcome Maurizio to the team.”
The first majestic GX42 is due for delivery in summer 2026.
