His remarkable knowledge of the industry and strong management skills have been a key part in his success during this time, and will now be put to great effect as he applies them to promoting the WIDER brand and increasing sales.

“We are overjoyed to have Jeremy on board”, said Tilli Antonelli, President of WIDERhe brings an international experience in the world of superyachts, such as strong relationships and great reputation in the brokerage world, that is of fundamental importance to the growth of our company. He was the missing piece of the puzzle and fits in perfectly with the rest of our team members”.

The move represents a significant change for Jeremy. “It is a real thrill for me to join a shipyard with such exciting and ambitious plans for the future. The satisfaction in seeing a new range of yachts being built, to exacting standards of quality, and delivered  to happy customers is what drove me to be part of the WIDER team. I was particularly attracted to the new range of Superyachts, beginning with the exciting and highly innovative motor yacht Wider 150, to be launched in September of this year, and soon to be followed by superyacht Wider 165… Watch this space for more releases as we plan further models to fill the range,” said Jeremy.
