The only eco-friendly classic boat with zero impact
IIchnusa is a beautiful vintage yacht from the early 80’s, unique of its kind. Whether she is moored, anchored or sailing she always gets public attention.
Born as a prototype designed by Dick Carter, she was built in 1982 at Comet shipyard in Pesaro, Italy. Wooden structure, fiberglass hull, central cockpit and flush deck in teak make this staysail rigged ketch with twin masts unique yacht. This boat is an ideal compromise between performance and resistance, able to sail also with light winds.
The water lines are the right compromise between resistance, liveability and performance so as not to compromise the possibility of sailing even in light breezes.
There are several fresh water tanks totalling 900 l. Blackwater tanks in the toilets help avoiding water pollution on anchorage and at ports.
Ichnusa is the only vintage sailboat in the world which has electric motor, wind generators, solar panels, watermaker and where waste recycling is done.

Segelbootkapitän in Sardinien
Mathias Andreas ReiterWho we are
Ichnusa is moored in the port of Cagliari, capital of Sardinia. The city, which is located in the center of the Gulf of Cagliari, was in the past an important crossroads for the peoples of the Mediterranean. “We are Spaniards, Africans, Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Arabs, Pisans, Byzantines, Piedmontese…” The thousand-year history of the civilizations that conquered Cagliari and Sardinia is described poetically by the Sardinian Nobel Prize winner Grazia Deledda and still speaks through its monumental beauties.
From the port this stone city will appear spread over its 11 hills, from which it will proudly observe you with its towers and its unforgettable sky. All roads from the sea lead to the Castello district, perched with its walls, its ramparts and its narrow alleys. Lose yourself in the narrow streets of the Marina district where you will still feel a multi-ethnic energy vibrating with the air smelling of spicy perfumes. Restaurants, shops, music, every corner is a piece of the world to experience.
Travel with us and you will discover an opportunity to love Cagliari, the city of the sun.
