10m IC Marga. Important steps on her restoration

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:39:57 +0000

Giants steps ahead on the Restoration of Marga. New ribs, new shelf, new beams have been moulded and built up. Ribs have been bent with steam following the old-fashion way by the master shipwright in Tecnomar Shipyard.
Thanks to our partner Chicco Zaccagni we manage to have the original sail-plans of Marga. So we will be able to restore this beautiful 10M IJ to her original. This is something that does not happen so often in classic restoration and a unique opportunity to bring a centenary yacht to her original glory.

Marga will soon become the boat to beat at the future classic regattas of the Mediterranean.
