Maritimo Product Partner Profile – Gineico Marine

A five-decade relationship, founded on family values, trust and product innovation.

It was the year 1976 when Bruno Gambacorti first landed on the shores of Australia from Italy to then return a year later to formally set up operations as Gambacorti Italian Nautical Export Import Co (now known as Gineico Marine), in French’s Forrest, NSW. It wasn’t long before a relationship was formed with Bill Barry-Cotter and Gineico became the preferred provider to supply a wide array of quality Italian designed and manufactured products.

A recent conversation with the founder’s son, Pierluigi (PG), touched on Gineico’s long working relationship with Bill along the way, as well as Maritimo for the last 20 years, and some of the key ingredients that has made it such a mutually successful one for both organisations. Of course, ultimately it is Maritimo owners who are the end beneficiaries.

“Gineico is an Italian family-owned business. For us it’s about being able to meet the person that you’re dealing with, shake hands, sit at a table and discuss something and then agree on an outcome. You know who you’re dealing with. It also means that when things go wrong, and things can go wrong, what matters is that you’ve got people that stand firmly behind their product, right? Quality products and quality after sales service. Looking after clients once that stuff has been sold. This is at the core of who we are,” stated PG.

Gineico Marine has long been committed to working with partners who share their unwavering dedication to quality and innovation.

The patented, revolutionary, vertical spinning design of the Quick Gyro sets it apart. The Quick gyros deploy a simple, low maintenance air-cooled operation, and their adaptive precession delivers market leading roll reduction performance in any seas, without all the hassles.

A perfect example was a recently launched Maritimo M55, where a Quick X30 gyro (with an unmatched 30,333 Nm of anti-rolling torque) delivered an amazing 97% reduction in choppy, rough seas in the Gold Coast seaway.

“Innovation is at the core of both Gineico and Maritimo. If it enhances the boat or elevates the owner’s experience, it delivers superior results, then this undoubtedly enhances the joy of a day out on the water. After all, isn’t that what boating is all about?”

“The future for Maritimo is fantastic because they continue to innovate. They continue to lead the way. Right from the very beginning Bill set the benchmark, and if you’re going to set a benchmark, then you’ve got to use good quality products from reputable companies. It’s as simple as that. Maritimo’s reputation is on the line too, as is ours. In this way owners know the people that Maritimo choose to partner with have to talk the talk, and walk the walk!”

“At the end of the day it’s a reflection on them as well as us, so you work hand in hand together, don’t you?”
