“Bellini Nautica, the world expert in the restoration of Riva® vintage boats who recently listed on Euronext Growth Milan, joins forces with Lanéva, the young innovative company based in Monaco specialized in designing and 100% electric luxury boats and certified powertrains.

This new Monegasque-Italian strategic partnership aims to become the leader in the retrofitting of classic and premium boats with electric engines, and a leader in reducing carbon emissions produced from the boating industry. The retrofit process consists of replacing the old internal combustion engine with a plug-and-play, certified, and fully electric powertrain. The ambition of this strategic partnership for the next 5 years is the sale of 150 kits, which is equivalent to a CO2 reduction of between 1000 and 1500 tonnes. 

Bellini Nautica and Lanéva’s strategic partnership responds to the new regulations in force for atmospheric and noise pollution reduction on bodies of water. 

As of today, retrofit kits compatible with all vintage Riva® boats are available. Among them, the Tritone, Florida, Olympic, Junior, Ariston, Rudy, Monte-Carlo Offshorer, Aquarama and their Super or Special versions.”

Interested owners are invited to contact the Bellini Nautica or Lanéva teams to request more information.

Electric Motor: The major prepares for a strong transition

The electric turn of yachting is becoming clearer. The major players in marine motorization are taking action so as not to let the market escape them.

Lanéva is proud to have valiantly started this shift. Realize every day that the trend is accelerating for a more sustainable world is a real satisfaction !

“Avalanche of announcements on the electric boat”

The month of January marked a boost in the unveiling of the strategies of the major engine manufacturers around the electric boat. We have seen Volvo Penta join forces with Bénéteau for a new generation 33-foot hybrid boat. On the outboard engine side, Mercury Marine has launched its range of small horsepower Avator transportable engines on the European market with great fanfare. More discreetly, Honda Marine exhibited on the Boot Dusseldorf a concept of a small electric motor based on its batteries for 2 wheels. Finally, on the occasion of its strategic plan, Suzuki has set 2024 as the release date for its first electric outboard. Formerly reserved for specialized players and dominated by Torqeedo and ePropulsion, the marine engine market is experiencing a turning point.

No market without boats

But all these engines were not very present on the original equipment boats. Again, the shift is underway. We have seen major manufacturers exhibiting their electric models, mainly in sailing, but also in dayboats. The arrival of electric boats in the fleet of major rental companies should also reassure boaters about their ability to withstand intensive use.

The coming months and years will be exciting to observe the recomposition of the motorization market for pleasure boats.”
