Reacting and being proactive at such a strange and difficult time: this is what Arcadia Yachts is doing, with some major initiatives offering concrete support for the company's employees and craftsmen.

After making use of the social safety nets put in place by the Italian government, Arcadia has decided to further support its workers' purchasing power to ensure that they will be ready to deal with the current situation in perfect tranquillity and serenity.

Arcadia Yachts is able to make this important commitment thanks to its financial solidity, aware of the key role played by businesses in their local communities.

Initiatives underlining the desire to face the future with confidence, maintaining dialogue with yachting passionate who continue to demonstrate interest in what the shipyards are doing. As demonstrated by the popularity of the renewed Arcadia Yachts website, which, after several months of steady growth, recently began to register even more views all over the world.

At present, the company's top management envisions a number of possible different scenarios for the near future, in order to be ready for the new world that will emerge from the crisis.

An auspicious sign for future recovery is the recent sale of a new Sherpa XL vessel, in addition to the four yachts already ordered. All five will be delivered in 2020.

"Arcadia Yachts successfully made its debut on the market during a very complicated time, ten years ago," explains Ugo Pellegrino, Sole Director of the Italian shipyard. "And now, as then, we will put all our energy, all our financial resources and all our character into dealing with the situation. The tranquillity of our craftsmen is very important to us, as it will allow us to start out again together, with new enthusiasm".
