Rigid inflatable boat (RIB) builder Highfield Boats has announced a partnership with Italian luxury RIB brand Nuova Jolly, forming Nuova Jolly North America, LLC.

The new partnership will launch at the 2023 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS), 25-29 October 2023 with the US debut of the Nuova Jolly’s model Prince 33 CC

“We are excited to represent the Nuova Jolly line of high-end performance RIBs from 28 to 50 feet in the US, Canada and Mexico,” says Christophe Lavigne, president, Highfield Boats USA and Nuova Jolly North America.

“These large, high-quality RIBs – many of which offer cruising accommodations as well as luxury outdoor living spaces – make the perfect complement to the Highfield line of aluminum-hull RIBs and tenders from 6 to 29 feet.”

Lavigne also announced the appointment of Jean-Côme Mazière as vice president of sales & marketing for Nuova Jolly North America. He says: “Jean-Côme, whose fields of expertise include engineering and global sales and business development, makes a strong addition to our team as we re-launch Nuova Jolly in North America and build a customer-centric dealer network for the brand.”

The Prince 33 CC will be displayed on the new Nuova Jolly stand at FLIBS’ Bahia Mar location, Booth 306, across from Highfield Boats.
