A TALE OF SEA AND WIND
HISTORY,
ORIGINS AND ROOTS
The Centro Velico Caprera was founded in 1967 by Vittorio di Sambuy, Marco Notarbartolo di Sciara e Guido Colnaghi, who had an idea, or rather a dream: to create a sailing school based on the values and traditions of the Italian Navy. It was realised thanks to the Italian Touring Club and the Lega Navale of Milan.
A FUTURE
MADE OF PEOPLE
With over 2,000 volunteers, the CVC has become the largest sailing institution in Italy and a true international benchmark. It is thanks to the generations of "Caprerini" who for over 50 years have been able to pass on tradition and innovation and unite under the school's founding values.
PROTECTING THE SEA
AND THE TERRITORY
Respect for the sea and the surrounding environment have been CVC's guiding principles from the outset. Over the years, this focus has been further increased with the installation of solar thermal, the elimination of all single-use plastics, ecological commandos and the commitment to the Sea.ste.ma. project.
