About us

We treat every hull as if it were our own. It's the only way we know to do this work.

Centro Nautico Ticino was born from a passion for boating and first-hand knowledge of the Ceresio's waters. Every day we work on motorboats, sailboats, wakeboats and mahogany classics, from small tenders to collector's pieces.

“Over twenty years of craft, learned alongside Mr. Raimondi in his renowned boatyard. That's where the standard we apply to every boat entrusted to us comes from.”

Book winter storage

  1. Book and hand us the keys

    In the low season, about a week's notice is enough. We collect the boat ourselves, together with all the mooring gear.

  2. Winterised the right way

    We drain every fluid, from ballast to water circuits, and prepare engine and systems to face the cold without surprises.

  3. Indoor storage

    Your boat spends the winter sheltered in our storage hall, among over 130 spaces across several levels.

    Insured for handling, transport and storage

  4. Work during the layup

    The winter layup is the ideal time for maintenance, repairs and polishing. We agree every job with you in advance.

  5. Returned, ready for the season

    Let us know the date at least two weeks ahead, three in high season, and your boat will be ready to go.

Our facility · Brusino Arsizio

Every lift, a measured gesture.

Haul-out and launch are the most delicate moments in a boat's life. That's why we handle them with our own crane, right on the lake at Brusino Arsizio, using slings fitted to each hull.

We plan every job around the season and lake conditions, so your boat always enters and leaves the water safely.
