The Cantiere Nautico del Verbano (Nautical Shipyard of Verbano) is situated on the Lago Maggiore by the picturesque gulf of Feriolo, full of touristic infrastructures , just few Kms afar from Stresa and only five minutes of navigation away from the famous Isole Borromee.

Situated along Sempione's (S.S. 33) countryroad, it's just two minutes of driving away from the Voltri - Sempione (A26) highway's exit of Baveno .

The Shipyard has born in 1979 thanks to Augusto Bottagisio's great passion for pleasure boat's seamanship and in particular for sailing, a passion he has transmitted to his son Aldo who, after sail-racing for many years in agonistic competitions with very good results, with the same enthusiasm as his father's, has dedicated himself to the Shipyard's activity.
