Via al Salone dell’eccellenza nautica, in ripresa anche i piccoli cantieri

The Salone dell'eccellenza nautica, which includes small shipyards, is set to become the world's leading nautical exposition, according to Piero Formenti, president of Confindustria nautica. This is despite the fact that the event faces competition from Dusseldorf and Fort Lauderdale, with both of those cities currently in decline or difficulty.
The new edition, number 66 of the kermesse, began yesterday with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by Giorgia Meloni, the president of the council. Meloni emphasized that nautical excellence is a cornerstone of Italy's economy, with Italy's production value reaching 8.7 billion and contributing to 50% of the GDP's maritime sector.
The conference also highlighted a new partnership between Azimut yachts and Ferrari Hypersail, a 100-foot flying catamaran project. The two companies have announced a new operational hub in Livorno, which will serve as a "house of the project." Italy yachts and Cranchi yachts, two small shipyard representatives, noted positive signs at the start of the exhibition. Both companies expect good results and a positive signal for recovery.
