Who is
Giacomo
Giacomo Nicchitta was six years old when his father showed him videos of the Vendée Globe 2008: the solo round-the-world race. That image never left him. Not a vague dream — a precise direction.
At thirteen he began racing at the Cala di Palermo, as crew on offshore boats. He grew fast: competing in the 151 Miglia and the IRC European Championship in Sanremo. But something was missing. He wanted full control of the boat, complete responsibility for every decision — right and wrong alike.
The Mini class gave him what he was looking for: a world of young sailors crossing the ocean on 6.5 metres of fibreglass, alone against the wind.

Eva Luna
Eva Luna
Prototype #667
2007 Finot prototype. It has already won two Mini Transats with skippers who now race at the Vendée Globe, the pinnacle of ocean sailing.
The sustainable choice
Ocean sport has changed: ever more expensive boats, ever shorter lifecycles, non-recyclable hulls scrapped within two years. Giacomo takes the opposite direction — racing a 2007 boat at the highest level, proving that neither exorbitant budgets nor environmental compromises are needed to run a serious competitive programme.
