CANADOS HISTORY
Canados was founded in 1946 on a former hydroplane base near Rome, just seven km from Fiumicino Airport. Initially building vessels for the Italian Navy, coastguard, and harbor masters, the cooperative of master carpenters—whose name derives from Cantieri Navali di Ostia—quickly earned global respect. In 1953, after witnessing the launch of eight fast patrol boats, a Gulf royal commissioned a custom yacht, marking Canados’ entry into luxury yacht building. Since then, the yard has delivered over 800 yachts. Across nearly eight decades, Canados has remained committed to craftsmanship, innovation, and the pursuit of perfection in every project.
CANADOS PHILOSOPHY
Each Canados yacht is a bespoke creation, shaped by a philosophy of vertical integration that guarantees complete control over every stage of production—from naval architecture to interior outfitting.
