Santa Margherita custom builder Otam, which builds fast cruisers and yachts from 45 up to 115 feet updates its new World wide web showroom. This new 2024 web site coincides with Otam celebrating its seventy years anniversary. Otam was founded in nineteen July 1954, with its name meaning Organizzazione Tigullio Assistenza Motoscafi which translated means; Organization Tigullio Assistance to Motorboats. In a short time after its founding Otam actually becomes Riva Yacht Service centre of the East Coast Ligurian sea area. In 1968 Otam starts the construction of two 38 and 42 models, of which it builds a total of fifteen motorboats all constructed in wood triple planking method. Some of these builds are still as at today in navigation. In the eighties with the fiberglass becoming the main building method for boats Otam moves away from construction and dedicates itself to outfitting for a very known US builder with a total of 25 yachts being made. In after the mid nineties, to be exact in 1997 Otam restarts boat building production with the Heritage 45 and Millennium 55 as designed by Paul Martin and naval architecture by Umberto Tagliavini, with both the models still as at today being in construction and representing the entry level of the Yachts line. Today Otam builds a total of twelve models, eleven in the fast Yachts range which starts at 45 and goes up to 90 foot, and one from the Custom range which is the 115 it launched in 2016. Otam's latest model is the semi custom 90 GTS launched this Summer 2024. Otam's new website is available in English and Italian language and takes you around with the following buttons; Yachts, Corporate, Universe, and Contacts. Otam is also present in social media with links at the bottom left of the page taking you to its Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, and YouTube pages.
