Why would anyone choose to buy a vintage yacht instead of an easy, comfortable, modern boat? The passion for restoration and philological reconstruction are two important reasons,together with the unequalled enjoyment of sailing a rare, often unique craft. A yacht whose sea-handling characteristics are completely different from those of any other. Also, being able to identify the rigging and the slender lines of your own vintage yacht from afar is an uncomparable pleasure, second only to the pleasure of actually owning it. A yacht of important historical value, in its original condition
and without the alterations is very hard to find nowdays . However, there are experts who are able to see behind the alterations, find original plans and refer back to the boat yard's original construction techniques. Although a recent passion, the restoration of vintage yachts has already become a new specialization for various boat yards, supported by offices of naval architecture and consultants.
Thanks to their experience ,they can act on behalf of the yacht owner, knowing his wishes ,and when needed they can restrain his enthusiasm and guide him through the historical traces and structural features of the boat, and provide their technical interface with shipyards, craftsmen ,registers and rules
