Camper & Nicholsons International has signed an agreement with Antonini Navi to increase visibility and promote sales of the steel Utility Platform 40 (UP40) designed by Fulvio De Simoni for the La Spezia-based shipyard. Antonini Navi offers a range of services from the construction of custom yachts up to 70m to refitting, after-sales services, superyacht berthing and third-party production.
Simone Antonini, CEO of Antonini Navi, said: “We are extremely proud of this collaboration with an important partner such as Camper & Nicholsons. We are sure it will be a synergistic partnership that will allow us to expand our market and foster positive results with the most demanding clients.”

Antonini Navi is a key player and innovator in the luxury yacht market, and we are thrilled to be working alongside with them.”
