Not finding any suitable boats on the market we asked David Reard, a french naval architect, to design it. For the realization then, convinced of the validity of the project, we established a boatyard where has been carried out all stages of construction. The Walkabout 43 N ° 1 was launched in late July 2010

The experience gained during the around the world cruising and the desire to let other live the wonderful experiences, have pushed Lorenzo Leonello and Annalisa De Cesare to launch a new boatyard for the construction of sailboats suited to sailing the high seas.

The Walkabout boatyard, is headquartered in Santarcangelo di Romagna (Rimini Italy) and the production process is based on high technology.

Designing with every detail is made with the help of CAD, cut planking and interior are CNC, hulls are made with composite lamination vacuum.

The high technology complements the attention to every detail and quality control of implementation during the building phases
