In Ceriale, Giuseppe Patrone establishes his work as a master boatbuilder, giving life to gozzi crafted according to the most authentic Ligurian tradition. An enduring legacy is born, destined to stand the test of time.
Patrone’s Dinghy 12’ boats win twenty-six titles at the Italian National Championships, establishing the shipyard among the leading names in Italian yachting.
The introduction of pre-shaped mahogany laminated hull sections marks a decisive step forward in construction, combining strength, performance, and artisanal mastery.
The shipyard introduces fiberglass-reinforced resin while preserving refined wooden finishes. The Nautilus is born — the first fiberglass pilot boat by Patrone — produced in over 200 units.
With the arrival of Pier Michele and Ornella Moreno, a new phase of development begins, driven by technological innovation and a renewed stylistic vision. A journey that strengthens the shipyard’s heritage while projecting its identity into the future.
The Patrone 25’ marks the brand’s entry into recreational boating, reinterpreting the traditional gozzo in a contemporary key. With over 100 units built, it becomes one of the shipyard’s defining models.
Presented at the Cannes Yachting Festival, the Patrone 42’ Open stands out for its design balance, generous onboard living spaces, and timeless identity.
With the Patrone 27’ Special, Mediterranean tradition and Italian design merge into a refined and instantly recognizable expression. This marks the birth of the Special line, later evolving with the 30’ Special and defining Patrone’s contemporary stylistic language in finishes and detailing.
Ninety years of activity and fifty years at the Genoa Boat Show reflect the shipyard’s consistency and enduring strength. Clients, friends, and enthusiasts celebrate this milestone through dedicated events, including a golf trophy and Patrone Day, transforming the anniversary into a moment of sharing and conviviality.
The acquisition of the Sciallino brand strengthens the Moreno family’s commitment to preserving the culture of the Ligurian gozzo, while maintaining the distinct identities of both brands.
On the occasion of its centenary, the Patrone 100 is born, designed by Studio Spadolini: a contemporary gozzo that projects tradition into the future. The model also reflects the entry of the fourth generation into the company — Gianarnaldo and Benedetta Moreno — reinforcing the living continuity of the family. In the same year, the Patrone Terrace is inaugurated at Luci di La Muntagna in Porto Cervo, expressing the brand’s lifestyle universe and Mediterranean spirit.
Building on the success of the P100, the Patrone 45’ Open is introduced as the new flagship designed by Tommaso Spadolini. A 14-meter open cruiser that reinterprets the charm of the Ligurian gozzo in a contemporary key, combining Mediterranean styling, onboard conviviality, and absolute comfort across interior and exterior spaces.
Patrone celebrates its Ligurian roots with the launch of the “Live the True Mediterranean” campaign, a manifesto of a lifestyle shaped by slow rhythms, conviviality, and an authentic Mediterranean spirit. This vision also comes to life in Porto Rafael through the collaboration with Solaz by Patrone for the 2025 summer season: a setting that embodies understated elegance facing the sea.
