This year’s Valletta Boat Show at the Grand Hotel Excelsior in Floriana saw the launch of a new brand especially targeted at pleasure boat owners who are after the raw excitement offered by the inflatable dinghy, Motonautica Vesuviana.

Motonautica Vesuviana is an Italian brand producing higher quality rubber dinghies.

Set up in 1994 by Italian entrepreneur Vincenzo Nappo purely to satisfy his long lasting passion for rubber dinghies, Motonautica Vesuviana is a translation of Vincenzo’s long years of navigation and nautical camping during which he developed a need to address a number of challenges that the rubber dinghy still presented to nautical camping enthusiasts. Motonautica Vesuviana was the starting point of his venture.

The stand at the Valletta Boat Show featured Motonautica Vesuviana’s new MV 570 Comfort, a 5m 70cm dinghy which can take up to 12 passengers and which represents the latest technical characteristics in rubber dinghy production.
