Rodriquez Yachts

In 1887, Leopoldo Rodriquez built and established a small repair yard in the city of Messina, located on the Eastern tip of Sicily. This yard prospered despite the effects of two significant events: An earthquake in 1908 that destroyed the city and killed half the population followed by the outbreak of World War I. In the 1950's experimentation began on hydrofoils and Carlo Rodriquez seized upon the success of "Freccia del Sole" and established Aliscafi SNAV in 1958 to operate hydrofoils and prove their commercial viability. The first commercial service was established between Sicily and the Italian mainland across the straights of Messina but quickly expanded to other routes.

Rodriquez yachts have been involved in many forms of nautical mass transit and since May 2004 Rodriquez belongs to IMMSI, a big italian industrial group listed at Milan stock exchange, which further strengths the position of the yard as well as provide for the development of Rodriquez. After more than 100 years Rodriquez Cantieri Navali S.p.A. has become one of the leading international shipyards whose diverse product range is based on advanced technological solutions. Today, Rodriquez designs and builds boats from 14 to 150 meters long, in fibreglass, carbonfibre, aluminium and steel for the commercial, military, pleasure and yacht sectors.
