Interview with Gaetano Fortunato, General Manager at Eolo Marine: “Here are the first tests aboard Eolo 9”
Eolo 9, the latest jewel from Eolo Marine, has been unveiled and, as expected, has amply fulfilled the expectations of dealers who, in a preview, had the pleasure of carrying out the first in-water tests.
Reliable, sturdy, fast, elegant… Adjectives are wasted in talking about this Daily Line which, with its sinuous lines and eclectic spirit, is essentially suitable for all occasions. In just 9 meters, Eolo Nove synthesizes the whole spirit of Eolo Marine, which on the one hand is a soul made of precious details, choice of fine materials and lots of comfort, but on the other hand is also very gritty and performance-oriented: a family line for wonderful days with friends, a sporty boat for a trip with friends or a fishing trip, but also very elegant and charming.
A model much awaited by the market and equally wanted by the company, as Gaetano Fortunato, Eolo Marine General Manager & Member at Confindustria Nautica, tells us.
“Let’s start by saying that Eolo 9 is clearly a continuation of the work we did with the other models, primarily Eolo 830. We were asked for an upgrade. Another reason is related to the fact that in this range, so between 9 and 10 meters, there are not many shipyards that make this type of boat: we are few, in short, to offer this type of size, which is somewhere between a yacht and a medium-small boat.
The boat positions itself in a medium-high price range, about 200,000 € with full equipment, and we expect a very good market feedback: we can count on many dealers in Europe, and recently we also have a new one in Canada. We are confident, in short, about the model and the product, which is perfect for this kind of market”.
