    “Through Nautical Ventures, we are curating a focused portfolio of electric products that meet clear criteria for our Florida customers – performance, safety, and serviceability,” said Diego N. Conti, Head of Sales at Nautical Ventures. “Taiga’s personal watercraft fits that brief and strengthens the Electric Division’s offering. Our role is to make the right products easy to discover, purchase, and support across our network.”

    Phillip Sudano, Director of Network Operations at Taiga Motors, added: “We’re entering an exciting new chapter at Taiga, with strong momentum behind our recently unveiled MY26 models and expanding partnerships around the globe. Florida is one of the most important watercraft markets in the world, and we’re thrilled to partner with Nautical Ventures and their group of dealerships in Florida. Their forward-thinking approach, deep electric expertise, and proven retail platform make them the perfect partner to introduce and support Taiga’s next-generation watercraft. Together, we’re committed to building a strong foundation with Florida’s boating community as electric adoption accelerates.”
