EMILIA: genuine 1930s racing pedigree within an exclusive classic sailing fleet.
Built in wood by Cantieri Costaguta in 1930, EMILIA offers accommodation for two guests in one stateroom. Fully restored to her original condition and rigging, she is actively campaigned in classic sailing regattas across the West Mediterranean.
EMILIA is a classic 21m sailing yacht for sale whose character was built for competition rather than comfort, a quality that has shaped her restoration and her ongoing life on the classic racing circuit. Her design draws on the artisanal shipbuilding traditions of her era, and she has been fully restored to her original condition, including her original rigging, giving her a rare authenticity among yachts of this vintage.
Inside, the accommodation reflects her racing pedigree: the layout is arranged to support performance rather than extended liveaboard comfort, in keeping with a yacht that has spent much of her life competing.
EMILIA continues to perform in classic sailing races four times a year and is recognised within an exclusive fleet of classic sailing yachts, a status that adds to her appeal as a collector's yacht rather than a conventional cruising boat.
She last underwent a refit in 2005 and is fitted with a Volvo D2-75 engine, giving her a cruising speed of 6 knots and a top speed of 8 knots under power, with a range of 200 nautical miles. Her maintenance is up to date, and the entire rigging has been entirely replaced.
She is based in Italy, a natural home for the classic regatta circuit in which she competes. For an Owner drawn to the pedigree and character of classic sailing yachts, EMILIA represents a rare opportunity to acquire a yacht with genuine racing history and provenance.
EMILIA is best suited to an Owner who values authenticity and racing pedigree over scale, and her restored original rigging sets her apart within the classic sailing fleet she competes in.
