Throughout our extensive presence of more than seventy years in the French market, Fenwick is a long-lasting partner of various well-known marine engine brands. As the market evolves and new trends emerge, we strongly believe that Cox will bring innovative solutions to the market, allowing our French customers to enjoy new ways to navigate.“
Commenting about the impact the CXO300 will have on the French market Vène said, “We think Diesel outboards have been long required by the market and especially by professional users such as the commercial fishing and workboat sector and also superyacht tender builders. Demanding customers expect high quality products and a high level of service and this is exactly what Fenwick, as a partner of Cox, intends to provide to the French market. Relying on our deep knowledge of the market, we are confident that the introduction of Cox diesel outboards will be a great success.“
