Italian boatbuilder Ranieri International has partnered with Miami Boat Place to carry its boats and RIBs in southeast Florida.

Miami Boat Place is led by CEO Rafael Arredondo, Nobel Diaz and owner Nelson Rumes.

“We are proud to have Miami Boat Place as our partner in the U.S. and are looking forward to working closely with Rafael and his team,” Salvatore and Antonio Ranieri said in a statement. “We will be offering only limited dealer territories and select market areas to keep our production quality and rate of growth at a pace that will allow for the continue production of exceptional boats.”

The naming of an exclusive dealer for southeast Florida is the start of an expansion plan for Ranieri. The company builds 12 models of fiberglass cruisers, center consoles and walkarounds from 19 to 37 feet. It also builds 14 RIB models from 12 to 45 feet.

“I am extremely excited about the opportunity to represent Ranieri International and work with the Ranieri family to present their exceptional boats to our customers in Florida and other states, as well,” added Arredondo.
