our history
THAT'S HOW EVERYTHING GOT START
Founded in 1988 by Gerardo Guarino, an expert in the automotive and marine industries, Nautica Gerardo Guarino SA is a company based in Locarno, near beautiful Lake Maggiore. Our facility can accommodate boats from 6 to 14 meters during the winter. We offer a wide range of services, including boat storage and storage, repairs, miscellaneous and hauling, polishing, and boat body work. Our team of loyal and highly qualified staff ensures high quality services to meet the needs of our clients.
In 2000, we expanded our facilities by acquiring a second storage shed for our customers’ boats, providing them with more space and comfort for their valuable vessels.
In 2023, the leadership of our company saw the advent of a new chapter with the hiring of Federico Zgraggen as owner and director. With a wealth of experience in the automotive and marine industries, Federico has also led a renowned boat rental company in the Locarno area since 2012. Flanked by Gerardo Guarino, who assumes the role of deputy director, he provides operational continuity and deep expertise within our company. This revamped set-up promises to guide our company to new successes while maintaining the solid roots and expertise that set us apart.
