The boatyard A. Mostes had its origins in 1913 when Alessandro Mostes, our grand-grandfather, aware of his passion for and skills in the processing of wood, opened in Lezzeno, on Lake Como, our boatyard.

Here a 30m x 10m slipway was prepared to build the famous “Comballo”, a typical old boat from our area, mainly used to transport goods and people, the “Gondola Lariana, the “Dinghi” (sailing small boats) and the renowned fishing boat Lucia, also present in the famous novel The Betrothed by the writer A. Manzoni. All completely made by hand using chestnut wood.

Sandro, our father, started the third generation of our family Mostes. Thanks to his passion and far-sightedness, he was the one who started building the first motorboats of mahogany wood, equipped with outboard engines 15/25hp.

Thanks to Sandro’s passion for speed and motorboats, since the early 1980s the designing and production has been focussed on V bottom race motorboats, equipped with 400 HP engines, internationally appreciated and competitive. This choice was made also considering the remarkable specialization acquired.

Throughout a century of experience, we have come to present days. After renovating our boatyard with the construction of new sheds, we have chosen to prefer a specialized and innovative designing of motorboats between 6.50 and 10.10 m, whose speed, elegance and details are really appreciated by our faithful clients. We think we have gained remarkable experience and skills through the years, which have allowed us to be appreciated both locally and also internationally.
