Anchor Yachts Signs on to Represent Beneteau Powerboats

Beneteau Ameriac has announced that Anchor Yacht Sales in Port Credit, Ontario is one of two new dealers that have signed on to represent the powerboats division. The other dealer is South Coast Yacht Sales in San Diego, California.

“We’re committed to establishing the most knowledgeable, customer-focused dealer network possible throughout North America. Adding South Coast Yachts on the west coast along with Anchor Yacht Sales in Canada to our already distinguished list of powerboat dealers brings us two steps closer to achieving our goal,” said Laurent Fabre, vice president of sales and marketing for Beneteau’s North American powerboats division.

While Beneteau has been building powerboats for more than 120 years, these ranges were only introduced to the North American market just over a year ago. In the U.S. and Canada, Beneteau is most widely known for its high quality, innovative and affordable sailing vessels, however; Beneteau’s powerboats are gaining attention.

Established in 1991, Anchor Yacht Sales is a professional, full-service dealership located in Port Credit, Ontario near Toronto. A Beneteau Certified Platinum dealer, Anchor has a successful history representing Beneteau sailboats as evidenced by several awards including the Beneteau USA President’s Award and countless “Top Gun” awards recognizing its brokers for their many achievements. Anchor will represent Beneteau Powerboats Division in the province of Ontario and extending west to Saskatchewan.

Beneteau is known worldwide for its sleek design, quality construction and innovation in the manufacturing of seaworthy sailing and power yachts. The Beneteau story began more than 125 years ago when Benjamin Bénéteau started building fishing trawlers in Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie, France. Today, the company continues to thrive under the leadership of Benjamin Bénéteau’s granddaughter, Madame Annette Bénéteau-Roux. Beneteau has grown to twenty manufacturing facilities in France, Italy and the U.S. Another production facility for powerboats is about to begin operations in Angra dos Reis, outside of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
