RNLI named Southampton Boat Show charity for 2026
The RNLI will bring lifeboats, engineering insight and practical water safety advice to Southampton International Boat Show in September 2026.


“We are thrilled to once again participate in the Southampton International Boat Show, an event that provides us with an extraordinary opportunity to meet boating enthusiasts and professionals”, said Renato Marconi, Marinedi CEO. “Our marina network is not only an ideal mooring place for those sailing along the Italian coasts, but also represents a safe harbour for those who wish to leave their boat in attentive and professional hands, with a wide range of dedicated services. We are proud to be able to offer a comfortable and unforgettable experience to our guests, meeting the needs of the most experienced and demanding boaters”.
Marinedi Group Marinas are not only wonderful stopovers for British and European boat owners sailing along the Italian coasts and wishing to visit some of the most beautiful regions of the Mediterranean, but also excellent nautical bases for those who want to leave their boats in a safe harbour, with attentive staff and a wide range of dedicated services. All of the group’s marinas meet the needs of the most experienced and demanding boaters, providing boat care and sailing support, ensuring a comfortable stay and an unforgettable experience.
Among the many advantages provided by the Marinedi Group is the possibility of entering into an annual contract in the Marina of main stay, which allows free mooring from one week up to four months in any other marina in the network, with the only limitation being the availability of the berth, at no additional cost and without having to deal with administrative issues, which are managed directly by the marinas.
In addition, boat owners who enter into seasonal, annual or multi-year contracts enjoy a fixed 10% discount for any other mooring requirements and are entitled to six free nights (with a maximum of two nights per port) in other Network marinas.
The British event is also a concrete opportunity for Marinedi Group to consolidate new synergies with international partners aimed at developing marina standards. An example is membership of TYHA (The Yacht Harbour Association) which manages and provides the Gold Anchor global accreditation programme.
Marinedi is looking forward to seeing you at the Southampton International Boat Show at the TYHA stand (J150)
Industry operators, boating enthusiasts and all those interested in learning about Marinedi Group’s initiatives are invited to an aperitif at the stand on Saturday, 14 September at around 5.00 p.m.
