Groupe Beneteau Finance Australia has officially launched in the Australian market introducing a dedicated customer finance solution designed to make premium boat ownership more accessible, streamlined and confidence-led for Australian buyers.

Powered by MitchCap, a leading Australian marine finance specialist, the new program brings together Groupe Beneteau’s global boating heritage with MitchCap’s local finance expertise to support customers, dealers and the broader marine retail ecosystem.

The launch marks an important milestone for marine retail finance in Australia, creating a structured finance pathway for customers purchasing through participating Australian Groupe Beneteau dealerships. The program has been designed to support a more seamless ownership journey, from initial enquiry through to finance assessment, approval and settlement.

Under the campaign platform “Experience Boat Ownership – The Premium Way”, Groupe Beneteau Finance Australia offers customers access to tailored marine finance options, flexible repayment structures and a dedicated finance experience aligned to the expectations of today’s boating lifestyle customer.

For eligible applicants, the launch offer includes an introductory fixed rate of 6.99% p.a.* for the first two years. The offer is subject to credit approval, eligibility criteria, fees, terms and conditions.

Paul Mitchell, CEO of MitchCap, said the launch reflects a growing opportunity to bring greater structure, simplicity and confidence to marine finance in Australia.

“This is a significant step forward for premium marine retail finance in Australia. Customers are looking for more than access to finance – they want clarity, speed, flexibility and confidence throughout the ownership journey. Groupe Beneteau Finance Australia has been created to deliver that experience, while giving dealers a stronger platform to support customer conversion and long-term growth.”

Yann Masselot, Groupe Beneteau Chief Sales Officer, confirms:

“We are delighted to announce this new partnership with Mitchcap for retail financing for our end customers in Australia. This agreement, which covers all Beneteau Group brands, demonstrates our commitment to offering our Australian customers tailored and accessible financing solutions that match their boating projects. We look forward to building this long-term collaboration with a team that shares our commitment to quality service.” The program will be made available through participating Australian Groupe Beneteau dealerships, giving dealers access to finance support, customer-facing tools and tailored solutions designed to help more Australians move from aspiration to ownership.”

The official launch at Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show 2026 provided an ideal platform to introduce the program to dealers, customers and industry stakeholders. The event, held on Australia’s Gold Coast from 21–24 May 2026, is positioned by organisers as one of the Southern Hemisphere’s leading boating lifestyle events.

Through the launch of Groupe Beneteau Finance Australia, Groupe Beneteau and MitchCap aim to strengthen the premium ownership experience, support dealer network growth and help more Australian customers begin their boating journey with confidence.
