Delivering a Superior Finish and Extraordinary Service
In our rise as a global market leader over
the last 10 years, there are a number of
aspects that allow ALEXSEAL® to stand
behind our claim of delivering a superior
finish in every can. The proprietary
formulas that comprise our products
are just one component of this success.
The marine market’s eager adoption of
ALEXSEAL® products is due perhaps in
equal part to Mankiewicz’s investment
in the team that developed – and now
services – the brand.
Our parent company and paint pioneer
Mankiewicz Gebr. & Co. built their
century-old business on the belief
that if they invest in the very best, the
greatest returns will be realized. Before
Mankiewicz even began selecting raw
materials, they started by amassing
a think-tank of over 150 of the world’s
most
innovative
chemists
and
respected coatings veterans. Together,
they defined the shortcomings of
existing marine coatings, and utilized
Mankiewicz’s experience from their
highly advanced systems – such
as those that beautify and protect
commercial aircraft at speeds in excess
of 600mph – to masterfully merge the

Arctic and Antarctic Circles, crossing

No small feat for any yacht, they
have also set course to do so in a

Roscioli Achieves a Perfect Balance of Luxury & Seaworthiness with ALEXSEAL®
Bob Roscioli started his career in the
marine industry as an apprentice in 1962.
Today he has applied his vast experience
and unparalleled standard of excellence
to Donzi by Roscioli and the recently
launched R-73.
The R-73 is a nimble, agile and
powerful sportfishing yacht that can
take all of the surprises that blue water
tournament angling can serve up. Equally
robust is the R-73’s ALEXSEAL® Diamond
Gray Metallic finish. Developed specifically
to withstand destructive marine elements,
the ALEXSEAL® Metallic system provides
discerning yacht owners a more durable
and luxurious alternative to the less-thanideal automotive finishes traditionally used
in the marine market. ALEXSEAL® Metallic
Base Coat achieves superior adhesion
while reducing “mottling” – a common
challenge with traditional metallic paints.
According to Bob Roscioli, “Roscioli
Yachting Center customers and staff are
extremely pleased with the ALEXSEAL®
Yacht Coatings finish achieved on
numerous recent projects.” Much
like Roscioli and their completely
renovated Fort Lauderdale facility,
Westport Yachts: Setting the Standard with ALEXSEAL®
Since 1964, Westport has continuously
invested in design, tooling, naval

commitment, and with the financial strength
as a world leader, Westport has earned
the confidence of the most discriminating
owners, based on an enviable record of
delivering the finished product on time and
on budget.
Similarly, ALEXSEAL’s parent company
and paint pioneer, Mankiewicz Gebr.
ALEXSEAL® is committed to maintaining,
if not surpassing, the highest standards
of quality. Roscioli sets the benchmark for
quality application, just as ALEXSEAL®
does with the products they apply.

fast sailer combines speed, luxury and
comfort with a very unique identity,”
says general manager Eel Kant. “She
has a new styling, but her beautiful
lines, outstanding sailing characteristics
and her typical looks have not been
changed.”
As more and more owners decide to
have their yachts upgraded, it is logical
to seek out world-class companies like
Jongert, known globally for their timehonored craftsmanship backed by the
latest technology. ALEXSEAL® is honored
to provide Jongert customers with the
advantages of our next-generation resin
technology and proven systems which can
respond to any application need, whether
the substrate is aluminum, steel or FRP.
New construction or refit, Jongert provides
superior quality and confidence in their
work, and with the support of ALEXSEAL®,
their yachts have the best combination of
appearance and durability of finish.
Bering Steel Trawlers Provide ALEXSEAL® with a Great Proving Ground
Alexei Mikhaylov, founder of Bering Yachts,
began his yacht building career in Russia
when he and a partner rebuilt a 136’ crew
boat. Its successful rebuild and resale led
to his next project, a steel ocean going
passage maker with strength, durability,
and ease of maintenance and repair. All
the qualities that made steel the material
of choice for Alexei and the foundation of
Bering Yachts’ lines of long-range, fulldisplacement passage makers, also make
ALEXSEAL® their finish of choice.
Bering Yachts strives to meet commercial
safety requirements to provide the ultimate
cruising peace of mind for their owners.
ALEXSEAL® offers similar peace of
mind with a customer service model that
provides support before, during and after
application.

“Excellent customer service is the
ability of an organization to constantly
and consistently exceed the customer’s
expectations, which would describe
our experience with ALEXSEAL®” said
Mikhaylov. “Armed with highly educated
and trained personnel who are extremely
knowledgeable about the products they
represent and the applications for
these products, ALEXSEAL® has been
a tremendous business partner.” With
models up to 80’, Bering offers serious

A distinct impression has been created
for NISI Yachts’ debutante, a 78’ semidisplacement model dubbed the NISI 2400.
Possessing many contemporary features
typically reserved for larger vessels, NISI
2400 is the only sub-80 foot yacht built
to RINA Charter and MCA Commercial
certifications. Built by European owned
NISI Yachts in their new state of the art
facility in southern China, NISI 2400 is an
impressively well thought-out entry in this
category. Another key to NISI’s instant
popularity is the hull and design by Setzer
Yacht Architects which minimizes weight to
improve performance and render speeds
not expected on a semi-displacement
hull of this size. Although new to the
market, NISI 2400 has quickly become the
benchmark by which other yachts of this
size are measured.
Also growing in popularity in the marine
market is the ALEXSEAL® Metallic System.
Not only does the highly opulent finish add
to NISI’s sophisticated presentation, the
ALEXSEAL® system provides owners with
a more durable metallic finish than was
previously available in the marine market.

development incorporates aluminum and
special effect pigmentation and offers
excellent coverage, uniformity and ease
of application. No other metallic system
provides these “severe wear” features that
the marine market demands.
The ALEXSEAL® Metallic System provides
a brilliant metallic effect, great distinction of
image, and long-term UV resistance. The
revolutionary two-component polyester
base coat is unique because it uses an
isocyanate converter to strengthen the
coating and promote intercoat adhesion
while reducing mottling and unevenness in
the final finish.
Backed by our professional technical and
sales support programs, an ALEXSEAL®
yacht represents the industry’s best
combination of appearance and durability.
In addition, an aliphatic polyester
polyurethane clear coat works in unison to
provide the scratch and stain resistance that
yachts require. This clear coat advantage
is why the ALEXSEAL® Metallic System
performs like a single-stage aliphatic
polyester polyurethane while providing
superior metallic appearance.
