The birth and the history of Italian excellence in the yacht world: Sessa Marine company. Dynamism and innovation, design and technology, style and quality: these are the exclusive features.
The history of Sessa Marine is a perfect example of the Italian entrepreneurial culture, where entrepreneurship and technological approach allowed the company to achieve excellence. Recognized for features such as dynamism and innovation, Sessa Marine conceives and realizes exclusive boats that combine design and technology, quality and style, without ever losing sight of its ultimate goal: producing "emotions" to anyone owning a Sessa Marine Yacht.
Sessa was founded in 1958 and the company was one of the first industry in Italy for the production of fenolic and poliester resin.
In 1968 the company enters into the marine industry with the first participation at the Genoa bot show and the beginning of a production diversification for the reinforced plastics.
The 70s years marked the production of small boats in Sessa Aurunca (South of Italy) factory and the construction of a new small shipyard in Cinisello Balsamo (North of Italy).
In 1972 the factory in Arcone near Milan was purchased and in 1973, Sessa is the first Italian company to install the new Piaggio jets and to build the first small inboard jet units.
In 1986 the company moved from Arcore to Lesmo (Milan) and two days later the boat production was transferred to the province of Bergamo, thanks to the acquisition of Fyberstamp.
At this time, Fyberstamp was building boats wellknown all over the world like Riva and Ferretti.
