Yard director Alberto Amico remarked “The yard has already received a number of exciting requests and around 30 boats for work — some from the French coast,”
The Cantiere Amico Loano Superyacht refit yard is the new brand of the Amico Group and benefits from the skill and know-how thanks to the long family experience in the world of yachts. The naval repair business began in 1885 when the family founded Luigi Amico Srl, still active today.
Amico & Co, a shipyard leader in the mega yacht refit & repair business, was founded in 1991 thanks to Guido and Alberto Amico’s business skills, providing quality services, reliability and respect of delivery times. Every year since, the yard has seen an increase in both physical size and capability of the yard.
