Rossinavi
Rossinavi is an Italian superyacht builder based in Viareggio, Tuscany, building full-custom and semi-custom yachts from approximately 30 meters to more than 70 meters (98 to 230+ ft). The family-owned shipyard retains significant engineering, metalworking, and electro-hydraulic capability in-house. For owners, that gives the yard considerable flexibility to develop a yacht around a specific cruising program, layout, technical brief, and approach to life aboard.
The Builder
Rossinavi’s roots trace to the Rossi family’s metalworking and shipbuilding business in Viareggio. Brothers Claudio and Paride Rossi built their early reputation fabricating steel and aluminum structures for the marine industry and later supplying hulls and superstructures to established Italian shipyards.
The Rossinavi brand was introduced in 2007 as the family moved from subcontracted construction into building yachts under its own name. Today, Rossinavi operates production facilities in Viareggio and Pisa, supported by its mechanical operation in Viareggio. Keeping a significant portion of engineering and fabrication within the company gives the shipyard direct control over many of the systems and components that shape a custom project.
Rossinavi works with designers and naval architects including Fulvio De Simoni, Enrico Gobbi, Philippe Briand, Tommaso Spadolini, and Arrabito Naval Architects. The shipyard has also invested heavily in hybrid-electric propulsion, battery storage, solar integration, and intelligent energy management through its BluE & Innovation program.

ROSSINAVI YACHTS FOR SALE
The Italian Yacht Group represents clients on both the acquisition and sale of Rossinavi yachts, including central-agency listings and buyer-side representation.
When evaluating a pre-owned Rossinavi, specification matters. Maintenance history, technical upgrades, class status, propulsion, original build brief, and the degree of customization can create meaningful differences between yachts from the same builder.
Our team can provide current specification packages, condition information, comparable-market context, and guidance on Rossinavi yachts currently available or being considered privately.
Commissioning a New Rossinavi
A Rossinavi new build begins with the owner’s brief and develops through ongoing work with the shipyard’s design, engineering, and production teams.
IYG works alongside the owner throughout that process, helping define the initial brief, coordinating with the shipyard, participating in milestone reviews, arranging independent surveys and sea trials, and assisting with delivery, documentation, flagging, and ownership considerations.
Production timing depends on the project and the yard’s active build schedule. Nolimits provides a more established technical framework, while a full-custom commission requires a broader design and engineering process. Current build slots and production timing should be confirmed directly with Rossinavi before a project is commissioned.
How IYG Works With Rossinavi Buyers
The Italian Yacht Group has direct experience with Rossinavi across both custom and semi-custom construction. The relationship includes IYG’s involvement in Gemini, the inaugural yacht in the Nolimits series, where the team represented the owner through the development and build process.
That experience gives IYG practical context around the decisions that arise during a Rossinavi project, from selecting the right platform and developing the specification to managing communication between the owner, designers, and shipyard.
Our work with Rossinavi clients can include:
- New-build advisory from initial brief through delivery
- Direct coordination with the shipyard
- Pre-owned yacht search and market analysis
- Specification and comparable-market review
- Cross-border transaction management
- VAT, flag, and ownership-structure guidance
- Survey, sea-trial, documentation, and delivery coordination
Common Questions About Rossinavi
Rossinavi builds yachts in Italy through facilities in Viareggio and Pisa, supported by its mechanical operation in Viareggio. The shipyard retains significant engineering, metalworking, and electro-hydraulic capability internally.
Rossinavi’s current offering spans approximately 30 meters to more than 70 meters. Nolimits begins at 30 meters, while the yard’s one-off full-custom work is concentrated primarily in the 40-meter-plus superyacht market.
Full-custom construction remains a central part of Rossinavi’s work. Each one-off yacht is developed around an individual owner brief. Nolimits provides a semi-custom alternative with established platforms and technical packages while retaining substantial flexibility in layout, interiors, equipment, and onboard use.
Rossinavi works with a range of external designers and naval architects depending on the project. Collaborators have included Fulvio De Simoni, Enrico Gobbi, Philippe Briand, Tommaso Spadolini, Arrabito Naval Architects, Gian Paolo Nari, and others.
Timing depends on yacht size, design development, technical complexity, and Rossinavi’s production schedule. A one-off custom yacht generally requires several years from initial concept through delivery. For an owner actively considering a project, the relevant timing is the shipyard’s current build-slot availability.
