History of Codecasa Yachts

The Codecasa Shipyard was established in 1825 by the shipwright Giovanni Battista Codecasa, from whom the yard takes its name. The yard was a family business, passed between generations.

In 1946, with the construction of more than 50 sailing ships to his name, Giovann Battista Codecasa (heir of Giovanni) retired and handed the company to his two sons, Ugo and Sandro. Family values and an inherent Italian flair for style and creativity lie at the core of this company and the Codecasa Shipyard is still run by an heir of the original founder, Fulvio Codecasa (son of Ugo). Fulvio has run the company for over 40 years now, supported by a versatile management team which includes his two daughters and their husbands.

The Codecasa Shipyard has been building luxury motor yachts, constructed in aluminum, since 2010. The most recent superyacht to be completed by the shipyard is the 213-foot (65m) REGINA D’ITALIA.
