Armare and Fraglia Vela Malcesine

“Sailing is not just sport but a lifestyle” is the claim that represents the mission of Fraglia Vela Malcesine, a club that for over than 60 years brings people to sailing. Armare Ropes fully shares this mission and it is with pride that communicates the technical collaboration with the historical circle of Malcesine to supply the running rigging of its boats.

Moving from many years of collaboration with the Technical Director of the Italian National Paralympic Team Giuseppe Devoti, it has started these days a technical cooperation with the Club Fraglia Vela Malcesine, an association that has over time established a significant presence in the national and international world of sport sailing. Malcesine and the Upper section of the Garda Lake Garda are known throughout the world as the best natural outdoor gym for the practice of sailing.
