Mid-Atlantic area sailors will have their choice of one hull or two, and all from the same dealer if they\u2019re in the market for a new sailboat from two of Groupe Beneteau\u2019s product lines. Crusader Yacht Sales has just been announced as the region\u2019s new distributor of Jeanneau<\/a> sailboats and Excess Catamarans, a line introduced last year by the French boat builder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Crusader owner Mike Titgemeyer said both brands are a good fit for his sales team, which has offices in Port Annapolis and Solomons Island. Crusader plans to have a number of models from both on display at next fall\u2019s U.S. Sailboat Show, scheduled for Annapolis on Oct. 8 to 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are delighted to welcome Crusader Yacht Sales to the Jeanneau family,\u201d said Nick Harvey, President of Jeanneau America. \u201cAdding a partner like Crusader allows us to strengthen our footprint in the local market. We\u2019re excited to continue growing the Jeanneau community in the Annapolis area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Fred Signat, director of Excess Catamarans in North America, notes that \u201cAdding a strong partner like Crusader, established since 1982 allows us to expand our network on the East Coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
