    Hi. I live in Sweden and have found two Italian boat brands that i really like the design of. It's "Conam" and "Innovazione e Progetti". My question is, is one of these boat brands better then the other and why? Any particular models to Watch out for? I'm looking in the range of 45-60 feet and about €280.000. The plan is to take it on a truck to northern Germany and then go by sea home to Stockholm.

    I will be very happy for any kind of ideas and tips you guys have.

    Innovazioni Progetti website is here; http://www.ipyachts.com/ They had success a lot in around 2000 - 2005 with its 40 and 43 models for its three cabins layout.
    The brand was before also known as Aquaviva. They used to be build in Ravenna. Quite a strong build and a nice hull but some electrical components where very basic, although not so bad.
    Inside they had nice cheery wood finish.

    Conam was sold to Rodriguez group in 2002, and then in around 2010 Rodriguez stopped manufacturing them.
    Cimino brothers from Naples founded the company in 1980 and this an innovative boat builder in the eighties and nineties.
    Cimino have recently founded this brand in 2015 http://www.solariayacht.com/
    Conam quality wise are on average to good.

    If you specify model I can tell you more.
