Key facts
In brief
Since 2010, project manager before; aerospace engineer.
Viareggio family yard building full-custom aluminium yachts of 40 to 75 m with 150 staff and 650 contractors.
What it adds up to. An aluminium specialist that delivered nothing in 2025 but launched two yachts since; the son is COO, the daughter co-runs the yard.
Organisation. Family owner; son as COO, no CEO title, no sales director
What it shows for a new yard. Family in every seat: no CEO title, no sales director, the owner and his children sell and build.

Number two (owning family). The owning family: the general manager's brother runs the floor. No hired number two.
A family general manager (since 2009) and a family chief operating officer over a Technical Director (since 2010), a Production Manager, a Head of Marketing, a purchasing chief, project managers and boat chiefs, an after-sales manager, and a technical office of architects and draughtsmen.
Rossinavi is the Rossi family at the top and a technical organisation beneath: there is no sales director on LinkedIn, no CFO title, and the two family executives hold general management and operations between them. The visible senior layer is three people (technical, production, marketing); everything else is project and design staff, many of them young and locally trained. It is the brief's 'founder-entrepreneur culture' case, and the family COO the brief names is a reference point, not a mover.

Seats and dates are as the people describe them on LinkedIn; a person who moved in the last months can still show the old seat. Tap a person for the profile and the reading.
