THE STORY

THE ORIGIN OF A LEGACY

The Sasga Yachts adventure traces its origins back to 1978, when Juan Sastre Bernat founded Astilleros Menorca to build a range of leisure vessels inspired by the traditional menorquín llaüt.

From modest facilities, the company created the Menorquín Yachts and began its expansion in the international nautical sector with a clear vocation: to preserve the spirit of the traditional vessel while adapting it to modern cruising.
