CMC Marine continues to expand its distribution network and signs a partnership agreement with SAIM Group, a well-established business that began life in 1951 and will soon be distributing the Waveless ultra-compact stabilization system throughout Italy, San Marino and the six Arab member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council.

Pursuing the strategy strongly backed by Alessandro Cappiello to internationalise and strengthen CMC Marine's distribution network, the Tuscany-based company is proud to announce the signing of an agreement with the marine division of SAIM Group, covering the sale of the Waveless line of ultra-compact stabilizers in Italy, San Marino and the six member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) - Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar.

Established in 1993, SAIM Marine is one of the three business units in SAIM Group, a benchmark supplier in the recreational boating and industrial motor sectors. Today, SAIM Marine imports and distributes equipment to leading Italian and foreign shipyards and has a service network consisting of over 100 authorised centres on the coasts of Italy, France, Slovenia and Croatia.

The Waveless system of ultra-compact state-of-the-art fin stablizers by CMC Marine, launched on the market in 2019, has met with greater than expected success on boats over 12 metres LOA in many countries worldwide - including the UK, Italy, Netherlands, Spain and Turkey, Hong Kong, Philippines and Australia - and interest continues to rise in Middle Eastern markets.

The partnership, which joins a long list of agreements signed in recent months, will be operational in time for the upcoming Genoa Boat Show from September 16 to 21, 2021.
