Stefano Crosta

Thanks to its ability to reach the general public – affirms Stefano Crosta, President of the Caprera Sailing Centre – Yamamay has played a decisive role in amplifying the messages of the M.A.R.E. project. For us, this means a great deal because one of the key objectives of the project is precisely the dissemination of issues related to the protection of marine ecosystems. The commitment and the amount of resources allocated by Yamamay to the initiative have made it an ideal partner both in the design and in the operational phases. We are convinced that this is only the beginning of a common path strongly focused on a deep harmony of values
