Born in Padua, Marcello is first and foremost a sport fisherman: «especially in inland waters and more for pleasure than for competition, so much so that I don’t take part in sea races, but it’s an activity I practice as often as possible». He became a tuccolist after the first 250VM – which bewitched him, making him definitively find his ideal boat – and for a long time he chose to be a passionate Ambassador. Later, it was precisely this same great belief in the value of fishermen and pleasure boats from the Collesalvetti shipyard that led him to become part of the crew in all respects. He brings his vision to the development of the shipyard as Development Manager, with the aim of expanding the market and its growth.
