Confusing Invoices and Incomplete Repairs: Our 23m Sailing Yacht Letdown

REVIEWS

We entrusted Amico Loano to prepare our 23‑metre sailing yacht for a long‑distance passage. We were bombarded with confusing invoices that bore little resemblance to the original quote, and our project manager kept changing without explanation. Critical rigging adjustments were left undone; mismatched deck planks were installed with visible gaps; electronics remained uninstalled and shrink‑wrapped in boxes. The yard’s crew left wet epoxy and sawdust across the saloon. When we finally left, the autopilot failed and a shroud came loose—both “repaired” by Amico. The lack of professionalism and accountability forced us back to a different yard for emergency fixes.
