The manufacturer of semi-rigid Vanguard Marine premiere facilities in STP Shipyard Palma, the main open port of repair and maintenance of ships in Europe... the new balear delegation is an important step in the international expansion of the brand, combining the commercial offer of the Vanguard catalogue with the service of repair of tyres through the firm Retuing

Vanguard Marine is making steady progress in its international expansion. With the opening of his new delegation to STP Shipyard Palma, the semi-rigid manufacturer is betting on a strategic location that moves the products and services of the yard to one of the most transit ports and boatcoat in the Mediterranean.

"Being on STP is getting close to the end customer", explains from Vanguard Marine Brandán Fombellida. "As a shipyard, dealing directly with the customer is the best way to know your needs and design the product you are looking for, and for it a savings in time and costs, as there are no intermediaries".

This capacity to make literally to measure is one of the main arguments of Vanguard Marine, which offers the highest quality standards supported by more than three decades of experience in manufacturing semi-rigid vessels with 100% European components.

The new ballistic delegation is an important commercial asset for Vanguard. Its presence in STP allows the shipyard to join the dosier of more than 500 specialized companies registered to work in a port that repairs about 1,500 ships a year and to be placed in the heart of the port of Palma, one of the most active in the Mediterranean. About 3,500 mooring places and intense port activity make Palma a strategic place for the expansion plans of the international Vanguard Marine group.

The new delegation is a real concessionaire with access to the extensive Vanguard semi-rigid catalogue, a offer structured in two main series: Professional and Nautical. The Professional Series covers the DR multi-purpose, TX offshore and SOLAS (rescue) ranges; the Nautical Series features Sport, Family and Pro Fish models. The range of length (between 4 and 12 meters), the variety of hull and float designs (in the three materials on the market and with a wide range of colors), and a wide catalogue of accessories, offers a practically unlimited factory customization capacity.

The new Vanguard Marine delegation in Palma includes official service Retubing, a leading firm in the repair and replacement of floats... Retubing has patterns of all brands and models on the market, and offers service to both professional and private customers, including superyacht support boats, one of the main demands for users of the highest length in STP... "The Retubing service offers the same quality standards as Vanguard, as it is performed with the same assembly processes and the same materials as in the factory. It is an operation with which the life of a half-rigid is doubled for a very competitive cost."
