The sailship “Italia” was born in 1993 in a Gdansk shipyard as “Swan fan Makkum”. She is still the largest two-masted sailing vessel in the world, with an overall length of 61 meters. She can carry 1300 square meters of sail and has an impressive air draft of 44 meters.

Since 2006 the boat, renamed “Italia”, is jointly owned and operated by the Italian Navy and the Yacht Club Italiano.
