C.N. TIGULLIO
CASTAGNOLA GIOVANNI M/Y 32 MT
The Italian shipyard Costruzioni Navali Tigullio di Castagnola
Giovanni, in the marketplace since 1959, has manufactured
"Angra" a 32 metre with two decks and a "flying bridge." The
wooden motor yacht is the result of magnificent workmanship and
a carefully selected choice of wood, for marine use, treated
specially under the supervision of the shipwright and owner of
the yard, Giovanni Castagnola. The shipyard's productive
capacity, now reduced to one or two units a year, favours
quality in as much as every single piece can be checked.
Costruzioni Navali Tigullio's finished product is, hence,
impeccable under every aspect. "Angra's" exterior design is
modern characterised however by classic details. The interior
design is a mix of modern and classic furnishings enhanced by
luminous wide spaces. The luminosity derives from the lateral
wide window panels. Five cabins are at the owner's and his
guests' disposal for a total of 10 berths whereas the five man
crew's quarters are billeted in a separate area. The areas in
common are distributed along the main deck. Moving from the bows
towards the stern, one encounters a large galley fully equipped
with the last generation of household appliances, a dining area
partitioned off into two by a bulkhead with two libraries and a
large TV plasma screen followed, finally, by a large saloon with
enormous sofas placed along its port and starboard sides with
matching cocktail tables and two armchairs. This deck's outer
space hosts two relaxing areas respectively at the bows and
stern of the yacht furnished with a sofa and cushions for
sunbathing on. The smaller deck above it, hosts the wheelhouse
at full beam from where one can control all of the yachts
instruments. It has two small armchairs for the Captain and co-
officer and a charting area. To the stern of it there's a living
room with an "L" shaped sofa in it. On the flying bridge there's
obviously the second helmsman's wheel as well as another space
for relaxing decked out with sofas, dining table, folding beds
and bar. This deck is extended at the bows purposely so as to
cater for two tenders manoeuvred by a powerful loading crane.
