We’re stoked to introduce Jean “JP” Le Roux as our new South Africa Company Director here at UX Marine. With a wealth of experience in boat building and industrial engineering, Jean’s now the head of our factory in Simonstown, leading the charge as we continue to innovate and raise the bar on quality craftsmanship
Steering the future of UX Marine designs
Jean’s not just here to keep things running smoothly—he’s the driving force behind our next big designs. Under his leadership, we’re gearing up to launch two exciting new models at the Cape Town Boat Show – Boatica this October: the UX19 and the Reef Runner. These boats are a true reflection of Jean’s knack for combining cutting-edge technology with sleek design and top-notch performance
The UX19 is a compact powerhouse, perfect for those wanting a versatile boat that handles both laid-back cruising and serious offshore adventures. The Reef Runner is set to be a hit with leisure boaters, offering the ideal mix of comfort, style, and performance. Both boats showcase Jean’s talent for creating vessels that push the boundaries of what’s possible on the water
A perfect fit for UX Marine
Jean’s no stranger to innovation. With over a decade in the boat building industry, including a top role at Robertson and Caine, he knows what it takes to deliver boats that are efficient, reliable, and built to the highest standards. His hands-on approach means he’s involved in every step of the process, ensuring that every boat leaving our factory is ready to impress
“Joining UX Marine is a great opportunity,” Jean says. “I’m passionate about creating boats that go above and beyond what people expect. The UX19 and Reef Runner are just the start of what we’re bringing to the table, and I can’t wait for people to see them at Boatica”
