Craft, heritage and quiet excellence – behind the scenes at Baglietto’s artisanal shipyard

Baglietto’s shipyard sits quietly on the La Spezia waterfront, but nothing about the operation feels small. The sheds hum with specialists, the slips are packed with steel and aluminium giants in mid-build, and the order book stretches years into the future. Yet, despite its 170-year legacy and star-studded roster of owners, Baglietto often can’t say much at all. Privacy, in this world, is currency — and it’s one of executive director Egidio Bisson’s biggest headaches....

Lithium isn’t the real fire risk on yachts, says Fireboy

Lithium batteries have become the headline villain in yacht fire conversations, but according to Fireboy chief operations officer Robert Aldous, the data tells a very different story. While new propulsion systems and alternative fuels are changing the way vessels are designed and operated, most marine fires still begin in far more familiar places. As the sector moves toward hybrid power and zero-emission goals, the real challenge isn’t panic — it’s precision, regulation and realistic risk management....

Clyde boaters breathe easy as controversial fee dropped — for now

Relief is rippling through the Clyde boating community after Peel Ports Clydeport confirmed it will not move forward — for now — with plans to introduce a new conservancy fee for leisure vessels. The proposal, first floated last year, sparked anger, anxiety and fierce opposition from small boat owners who feared it would make sailing on the Clyde unaffordable and drive people away from the water....

What’s driving Muir’s evolution in anchor windlass braking system

Subjected to immense forces, anchoring systems are critical in safe vessel operation. In challenging weather, they are often the primary defence against potential disasters like grounding or collisions. Robust and reliable design is equally important as safe and effective operation, as the extremely high loads mean that system failures or operational oversights in the dynamic environment of anchoring can be catastrophic....
