October 31, 2022
From yesterday to the Galata Museum of the Genoa Sea, in the area of the Ancient Port, it is open to the public "Tugboats Gathered From Genoa to the world 100 years anniversary", a multimedia journey celebrating the hundred years of the Gathered Tugboat Group. Born from an idea of Gregorio Gavarone, president of the company founded in 1922, the exhibition accompanies the visitor in an immersive journey that integrates with the atmosphere of the Museum Owners Hall, dedicated to the history of the Italian mariner, specially set up for the occasion.
Three major video screenings tell the segment of the harbour trailer within some of the world's main scallops where the group operates. Also on display is a selection of models representative of the fleet's evolution for trailer operations, arranged within teas in front of which touch monitors are placed with information and multimedia content on the story of the group and on the characteristics of the exhibited models. A selection of paintings also accompanies the visitor through the most relevant milestones in the history of the company, with tele of Giorgio Oikonomoy, Raimondo Sirotti, Valérie Trentin, Leonard Sherifi, Stefano Bortolin and Andrea Giovannini from the private collection of Gathered Tugboats.
"This exhibition wants to be a tribute to all the people who, since 1922, have contributed to the success of Tugkers Gathered in international markets," he said in a statement. If our group has been able to achieve extraordinary results, it is thanks to the contribution and commitment of all its employees who, in the years, have accompanied the group in its path of growth.
