OLGA

OLGA is a 30.3-metre mahogany-hulled planing motor yacht built by Cantieri di Pisa in 1977 to a custom design by the architect Pier-Luigi Spadolini, most recently refitted in 2024. Cantieri di Pisa was one of the defining Italian yards of the postwar era for high-quality timber construction, and Spadolini was among its most distinguished collaborators. A planing hull in mahogany from this period, maintained and brought up to date through 2024, is a genuinely rare category of vessel in active charter.

She accommodates up to 10 guests across five cabins, with a crew of five. Her charter regions are concentrated in the Western Mediterranean: France, Monaco, the French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, the Amalfi Coast, Calvi, and the Ligurian Riviera. This is a vessel suited to guests who value provenance, craftsmanship, and the tactile quality of a well-maintained heritage build — and who seek the social harbours and anchorages of the Italian and French Riviera rather than remote offshore passages. Guests seeking modern vessel systems throughout, or extensive amenity infrastructure, should consider a more recently built option.

What defines OLGA is the rarity of her construction and the longevity of her design. A planing mahogany hull delivering 28 knots maximum speed is a combination that modern production yards do not replicate. The 2024 refit ensures that her systems and finish meet contemporary expectations, while preserving the material character that distinguishes her from fibreglass contemporaries. Underway stabilisers, uncommon in vessels of this era, contribute to passage comfort without compromising her original character.

The onboard experience is deliberately uncluttered. Water sports cover a Yamaha Waverunner, two paddleboards, water skiing, wakeboarding, a floating pool, an inflatable water toy, and snorkelling equipment — a practical selection for a vessel of this scale and style. The sun deck, video on demand, and Wi-Fi address modern expectations, while the restrained amenity list reflects a vessel whose primary attraction is the quality of the hull and the craftsmanship of her build rather than resort-hotel infrastructure.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
