MES opens in Chichester Marina
01 Oct 2007
The new operation will look after retail, service and installation for the local berth holders as well as OEM fit-outs for the major brands distributed by the new Opal Marine business – Rodman, Legend and Azimut.
Heading up the new operation is Andy Banting, who was previously employed by B A Peters, so there will be good continuity for existing customers. Sales and service agreements are in place for all the leading marine electronic manufacturers including Garmin, Raymarine, Furuno, Digital Yacht, Standard Horizon and Icom.
These agreements also cover warranty service where appropriate.
‘With over 1200 berths, Chichester is a prime retail environment for us as well as an important source for new boats distributed by Opal Marine,’ commented Nick Heyes, MES MD.
Andy Banting comes with a wealth of knowledge and over 15 years experience with marine electronics, Heyes added, and we are delighted to have him and his team on board.
