There is no better expression to accompany
the release of this issue of Motor Boats.
. There are many reasons for this, and they all relate to boating and its players.
From Luca Bassani to the first real digital salon
Starting with Luca Bassani whose ideas have rewritten the way to design a boat where design serves function. But Wally is not simply a brand. Above all, it embodies a way of life. We met with him and went over the most significant milestones accomplished by Wally in the engine: from the debut of the Wallytender in the early 2000s to the present day. A journey through time told through the words of those who were truly able to revolutionize an industry by bringing a level of innovation never known before.
Bold choices that were initially met with suspicion and circumspection but later proved successful. Just as successful is the formula of Milan Yachting Week – The Digital Boat Show. A bold initiative, but one that just a few weeks after the official de butto is finding more and more support and, above all, more and more visitors. At a time in history marked by great changes, we wanted to take up the challenge with this initiative to expand our editorial offerings through an innovative format. The goal, by leveraging the opportunities offered by digital techno logy, is to reach an even wider audience, thus making them enjoy a unique nautical experience.
The leadership of Italian boating in the world
But on the subject of courage, it is worth noting the commitment and determination with which UCINA has pursued the organization, through I Saloni Nautici, of the 60th edition of the Genoa Boat Show. In fact, this is the first true European show, and after the cancellations of Cannes, Southampton, and Monte Carlo, the Ligurian event takes on even greater significance. A strong and clear message that, we like to emphasize, comes from Italy to reaffirm the leadership role that our country occupies globally.
