Baglietto
has a great military tradition. Starting from
1916, the shipyard supplied the Italian Navy with
the MAS PT boat (Motobarca Armata SVAN) and with
seaplanes. MAS was a small and fast craft used
as a means of attack by the Royal Marines during
the First and the Second World War. After the
Second World War the naval experience continued
with the construction of wooden and aluminium
coast guard cutters.
