The Cassiopèe

A short history:

It is our flagship,a fascinating 15-meter vintage ketch, built in 1957 in Cook shipyards in the Netherlands. It has a round steel hull, teak deck and wooden interior.
Its first owner is a Frenchman very well known in the international field of sailing. He was the instructor of a young sailing pioneer, Edith Baumann, who at the age of 22 was training to face the solitary Atlantic crossing aboard a trimaran. She sailed on Cassiopèe from France to Italy to Trieste making reference to her journey in her book "Alone against Atlantic". In Trieste Cassiopèe passed into the hands of two Italian brothers who sold it to a man from Puglia who took it to Otranto. So, 12 years ago, Rocco and Cristiana become the owners of Cassiopèe that was used to improve the Durlindana business.

Sailing from the harbor and after having admired the beauty of the coast of Castro, Andrano and Tricase Porto, we have the first stop for swimming in the bay of Marina Serra "Matrona Cave". A tasty aperitif which include friselline with tuna and tomatoes, pepata di cozze (mussels with pepper and lemon juice), typical focaccia and white wine will wait for you at the end of your swimming.
