Our partnership with Honda Marine and the offer of complete packages to all our dealers are a guarantee of quality and a synonym for evolution “.
Technology and innovation at the heart of collaboration

Technologies such as Blast and VTEC, and environmentally-friendly initiatives such as the Ecomo fuel-saving system, bear witness to this commitment. Today, the Fanale Marine range is equipped with high-performance Honda engines, from BF115 to BF350, ensuring power and reliability for all sailing conditions.
