Accessibility

Fully accessible, both indoors and outdoors, the catamaran Lo Spirito di Stella was built according to the principles of Design for All, to allow everyone, including people with disabilities, to experience the sea peacefully and safely. Thanks to his accessibility it has become a point of reference in the design and it is studied in the main Italian and European design schools.
