X Shore, the Swedish electric boating brand known for driving connected and sustainable boating with their 100% electric boat, the Eelex 8000, has established an official North American sales office in Newport, Rhode Island at the famed Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard. This office will serve as the year-round North American sales location, led by X Shore's North American Head of Sales, Patrick DeSocio.
As one of the most popular and highly recommended shipyards in the United States, the Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard provides over 3,500 linear feet of dock space with room to accommodate yachts over 300 feet and is a full service marina and shipyard. In addition to being a sales office, the location will also be used for VIP events and sea trials, with an Eelex 8000 accessible on land and in the water.
"We are thrilled to have our North American sales office established in the Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard," said North American Head of Sales Patrick DeSocio. "The boating traffic and visibility here is first-class, and with our office being officially open, we are excited to welcome in guests to learn more about X Shore and to offer sea trials to those who are interested in the Eelex 8000."
The sales team will be managing strategic sales initiatives and staging all X Shore boats at this location and is looking to employ a strategic workforce over the next two to three years. X Shore's Sarasota location will remain as a logistics base and will be used to support the sales team to access the Florida boat show circuit.
X Shore and the North American sales team will be present at the Newport International Boat Show from September 16 to September 19 and will be accessible at their on-land display located in the heart of Newport Village at Bowen's Wharf.
