Linssen Yachts strengthens its presence in France with a second distributor

The Dutch steel yacht builder expands its network in France with the opening of a second official distributor in Castelnaudary. This partnership complements Aquarelle France's long-standing presence in Auxerre, and marks a new stage in Linssen Yachts' sales strategy in the French market.

Structured national coverage

Linssen Yachts, which specializes in steel displacement yachts from 9 to 15 meters, continues to grow, with the support of two French distributors. Aquarelle France, long-established in Auxerre on the Yonne, remains the reference for the northern half of the country. Its offer combines sales, private marina, technical assistance and winterization services, in direct contact with owners and buyers.

A new partner on the Canal du Midi

To cover the south of France, the shipyard has joined forces with Linssen Yachts France, run by Audrey and Henk Coppelmans in Castelnaudary. Located on the Canal du Midi, this new branch not only offers sales and after-sales service, but also introduces a new formula: Linssen Live Away. This concept enables yachtsmen to discover sailing in the South of France through turnkey stays, including guided cruises, wintering in milder areas and personalized assistance.

Enhanced services for homeowners

The Linssen Live Away initiative draws on the expertise of Coppelmans Marine Service (CMS), a mobile partner able to intervene rapidly for maintenance and servicing. Owners can benefit not only from on-site technical assistance, but also from practical advice on how to extend their cruises or optimize their wintering. The offer is comprehensive, from technical support to organized excursions and personalized assistance.

A strategy focused on proximity

By consolidating its presence with Aquarelle France and Linssen Yachts France, the Dutch brand is strengthening its proximity to customers and prospects. This dual presence makes it possible to respond more precisely to the specific expectations of yachtsmen in the north and south of the country, while guaranteeing a uniform, coordinated service. It also reflects the importance of the French market to Linssen Yachts' international development.
