Moreover shipbuilding the nautical Italian is widening own range also to the boats of greater dimension, as they on target testify the orders for unit over the 100 meters put from Benetti and Fincantieri: "a new element for our shipbuilding one - it has evidenced Lorenzo Pollicardo, adviser Federagenti Yacht, - historically oriented to reduced dimensional segments more, in belt 30-50 meters, where very seven Italian yards turn out between the first 10 producers to the world".

Regarding Genoa, the great yachts stop in the capital of Liguria in average four touched days during the 1,500 that all see involved the Liguria (on beyond 6.000 touched of great recorded yachts every year from Federagenti long Yacht the Italian coasts), against an average national of 2,8 days. To Genoa the boats have use of nautical the harbour services technical/and of the tourist offer of the city and its territory, voices for which every year a great yacht spends respective about 3% and 2% of its value.
