A new partnership in the motorised water sports sector is attracting attention: Mercury Marine, a division of Brunswick Corporation, and the German Motor Yacht Association (DMYV) have agreed to work together to provide engines and spare parts for boats in the youth and competitive sports sector
As the sole representative of motorised water sports in Germany, the DMYV is a member of the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) and the Union Internationale Motonautique (UIM) - the world association for motorised water sports. The partnership with Mercury Marine is intended to ensure that the boats in the youth and competitive sports sector are equipped with engines that not only meet the high UIM standards, but can also withstand the rigours of training and competition.
DMYV and Mercury Marine on the co-operation
Frank Dettmering, President of the German Motor Yacht Association: "Mercury offers a wide range of engines that meet our needs - from small inflatable boats to powerful catamarans. The UIM conformity of Mercury engines enables our athletes to compete not only nationally but also internationally in accordance with the rules. We look forward to working with Mercury and thank them for their support."
