A Journey Through Time: Apreamare’s Legacy
1849 - Apreamare Yachts
Since 1849, Apreamare has been synonymous with maritime excellence, blending artisanal craftsmanship with innovative yacht design. Founded in Sorrento, Italy, by Giovanni Aprea, the brand started by crafting small handmade wooden boats for local fishermen. Over the years, Apreamare evolved into a symbol of luxury and performance, making it one of the most respected names in the yachting industry.oday.
The Post-War Revolution: The Birth of Gozzo Yachts
A pivotal moment came after World War II, when Apreamare pioneered an industry-changing innovation: integrating automobile engines into traditional wooden boats. This breakthrough led to the birth of the “Gozzo”, a timeless model that transformed the brand’s focus from fishing boats to leisure yachts, setting new standards in comfort, performance, and luxury.
1973 – The New Generation & Modernization
In 1973, Cataldo Aprea joined the family business, bringing a fresh vision and modernizing production methods. His passion for yachting excellence led to the foundation of the Apreamare Boatyard in 1983, marking the brand’s expansion into the luxury yacht segment.
1988 – Strategic Expansion
A major milestone was reached in 1988, when Cataldo Aprea partnered with Salvatore Pollio, a visionary builder. Together, they founded Apreamare Srl, capitalizing on the growing market for high-end leisure yachts.
2001 – International Growth with Ferretti Group
In 2001, Apreamare joined Ferretti Group, one of the most prestigious names in the marine industry. This collaboration enabled the brand to reach new markets, refining its design philosophy while maintaining its handcrafted essence.
2010 – A Return to Family Roots
After nearly a decade under the Ferretti Group, the Aprea and Pollio families regained full control of Apreamare on March 24, 2010. This return to its family-owned foundation reinforced the brand’s commitment to authentic Italian craftsmanship while continuing to push the boundaries of modern yacht design.
