Capelli Tempest 1000 Open Owner
No Hassle Boating
James shares his experience with Short Marine since purchasing his Capelli Tempest 1000 Open. Fishing with his son is more than just a hobby—it’s their time to connect, talk about things they wouldn’t usually discuss, and enjoy quality moments together. Later in the day, they get to unwind with the whole family, making Sundays extra special. With a busy job and active family life, James needed a boat that made things easy—something versatile, simple to manoeuvre, and hassle-free. After doing my research, James realised an inflatable was the perfect fit for our needs. That’s when he found Short Marine and their premium Capelli range—boats designed with incredible attention to detail, luxury, and practicality. From effortless anchoring to smooth handling, this boat has transformed our weekends on Sydney Harbour, whether it’s fishing with my son or cruising with friends. If you’re looking for a no-hassle, multi-purpose day boat, get in touch with Short Marine—they’ve got the perfect solution.
from doing his research and identifying @CantieriCapelli RIBs was the best boat to suit his and his family’s needs, to working with Short Marine, the enjoyment he gets out of boating and how our end-to-end offering has made this his best boating experience ever!
