Canados: Legacy of Maritime Excellence Since 1946

Founded on a rich tradition of Italian craftsmanship, Canados epitomizes the mastery of yacht manufacturing that dates back to 1946. Originating from an ex-hydroplane base near Rome, the Canados shipyard quickly gained international acclaim for its exquisite build quality and innovative design. With over 800 yachts delivered, Canados has solidified its reputation as a pioneer in combining modern technology with timeless craftsmanship.

A Tradition of Innovation and Quality

From the get-go, Canados was tasked with high-stakes projects, creating vessels for the Italian Navy and coastguards. However, it was the custom yacht commissioned by a Gulf emirate's royal family in 1953 that truly set Canados apart. This event marked Canados’s entry into the luxury yacht market, showcasing their exceptional skill in building high-performance and luxuriously appointed yachts.

Modern Technologies, Timeless Craftsmanship

Today, Canados continues to lead with innovation across its Gladiator, Oceanic, and Canados ranges, including standout models like the CANADOS 888 Evo and the Gladiator 961 Speed. The shipyard remains close to its heritage, just kilometers from Fiumicino airport, blending state-of-the-art materials and technology with the artistry that has defined Canados for nearly eight decades.
