Columbus Yachts

Shipyard History

Founded in 1967, Palumbo Group has been an active presence in the commercial ship building and repair market. In 2008, the company entered the luxury yacht market with the launch of the Columbus Yachts superyacht brand, and has since been part of Palumbo Superyachts division along with ISA Yachts, Mondomarine and Extra Yachts. Palumbo Superyachts boasts three new build and refit facilities in Naples, Ancona and Savona, and is able to deliver a comprehensive selection of model sizes from 24m through to 120m. The 2013 launch of the Columbus 40S Hybrid (now known as Leudin I) marked the first Columbus Yacht delivered by the Italian shipyard, with six completed since its creation. The largest Columbus Yachts project to date is the 80m Dragon, launched in 2019. Customers are offered a wide range of models, including sport, tri-deck and explorer yacht options.
