]During his career Richard has held senior international management roles in leading organisations such as F&P / Newell Brands and ACCO Brands, across New Zealand, Australia, USA, and the UK markets.
ENL’s Managing Director, Gareth Hodson, says Mr Bowe’s appointment will further strengthen ENL’s domestic position in the New Zealand market as continuing to further establish them as the international leader in multibeam sonar technology with its product WASSP.

“The opportunity to grow the WASSP brand in the global market is huge. From what I see, WASSP is very competitive and is leading the market. You only have to look at the numbers of systems being used by skippers internationally to see that.
Furuno has a large presence in New Zealand and the South Pacific, with ENL being the exclusive distributor, providing sales and support to both the recreational market and commercial fishing industries.Â
