What it adds up to. About one yacht a year, built by contractors around a small core staff, and no outside executive in two centuries.

Who runs it

  1. Top seatThe Codecasa family (not on the LinkedIn roster beyond an intern)
  2. Head of Technical Departmentsince 2003

Organisation. Family in every seat; no outside executive

What it shows for a new yard. The family holds every seat; the yard is a brand and a site, not an organisation to hire from.

The top team as read on LinkedIn11 people read as staff, October 2026

A Head of Technical Department (since 2003) and a project manager (since 2000) over draughtsmen, quality control and the workshop.

Eighteen people on LinkedIn for a yard that builds 40-70 m steel yachts: the family holds every decision and the senior layer is one engineer and one project manager, both with twenty-plus years in place. Nothing to source here; a reference for how a family full-custom yard runs with almost no management layer.
