HIST EVO SAIL YACHT

With a focus on the Mediterranean, northern Europe and the United States, this book investigates the strong image of yachting and the history of how sailboats have been built throughout the years. Giorgetti examines the values that have determined the design of yachts over the past 200 years, noting that the first voyage of a sailboat is actually the final stage of a process involving hundreds of craftsmen and years of design and innovation.
