Piero Formenti, formerly Vice President of the Italian Marine Industry Association, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6533" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Confindustra Nautica (Company)">Confindustria Nautica</a>, has assumed leadership following President Saverio Cecchi's decision to step down from office. The Association’s General Council convened yesterday and ratified the appointment in accordance with its statutes.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/311140/image/large-03e8d3fc067e4699891686b4a758178c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/311140"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6533" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Confindustra Nautica (Company)">Confindustria Nautica</a>, responsible for representing the Italian yachting industry and its supply chain, has affirmed that its activities will continue without interruption. The organisation will particularly focus on the yachting market and the consolidation of the Genoa International Boat Show.At the close of the General Council meeting, Formenti declared, "With the same dedication I have shown in expanding the company I run alongside my wife and son, and in representing the Association over the years, I will serve our member companies to the best of my ability."Formenti further emphasised, "The economic context is showing signs of a slowdown, a shift from three years of unprecedented growth that, in 2023, brought the Italian yachting sector to record highs in turnover, exports, and employment, rising from 160,000 to 200,000 jobs over five years. The small craft market is particularly affected, with expected contractions impacting various product segments, especially in certain regions. Factors contributing to this downturn include rising interest rates and restricted credit access."He added, "It is precisely in this scenario that the consolidation and expansion of the Genoa International Boat Show becomes even more critical. I regret to see several comments in the press questioning the value of public funds allocated to this event, the second largest industry event in Italy after the Salone del Mobile Milano and the third largest worldwide in the yachting sector. Annually, the show injects €65 million into the local economy alone, as reported by The European House - Ambrosetti in 'Rapporto Liguria 2030' (July 2023), yet it receives less financial support compared to its international counterparts."<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/178229/image/large-6de057084a13026cdc5e69191bb3d6ff.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/178229">Formenti concluded, "The Italian Trade Agency’s Events Plan has increased its support for the Genoa Boat Show, underscoring the need for a coordinated national effort to bolster Italy’s presence in international trade fairs. These events serve as critical platforms for the Made in Italy brand, and there is still work to be done to maximise their impact."Piero Formenti has served as Vice President of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6533" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Confindustra Nautica (Company)">Confindustria Nautica</a> for two consecutive terms since 2015, representing the small craft industry.

As the ultimate luxury item, superyachts are designed and built to some of the highest specifications of any object in the world. Many yachts feature entirely custom interiors from world-class designers to reflect the unique status of the vessels themselves, and as yachts are moving objects that face often turbulent conditions, the furniture used aboard needs to be specially designed as well. Superyacht furniture needs to be both beautiful and functional, accommodating sometimes limited spaces and resilient against marine conditions, and that is where <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a> comes in.&nbsp;Founded by carpenter Tim McCune, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a> has pioneered an expanding dining table that is ideally suited to use aboard superyachts. Based on an original design from 1835 by Robert Jupe, Tim and his team has reimagined the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus</a> table, building each one meticulously by hand and to unique specifications at their workshop in Arizona. We sat down with Tim to find out what makes the Lotus table so unique and the perfect accompaniment to any superyacht interior design. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/310755/image/large-03804da547ef24f5748951ffeb064dab.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/310755">Tell us about the origin of&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a>, when was the company founded, and how has it developed over the years?&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a> was spun out from our existing reclaimed barn wood furniture company, Western Heritage Furniture (WHF) two years ago. WHF designs and manufactures interior home furnishings in the Mission and Craftsman styles utilising reclaimed barn wood, leather, copper and steel. We sell to furniture dealers, interior designers, hospitality and residential and offer full custom options.&nbsp;In 2009, we were creating custom furniture pieces for a residential remodel in Utah while working with an interior design firm. They had an existing Jupe style table that they wanted to incorporate into the design, but it had warped making it non-functional. We took on the challenge to design and build a new table that would remain stable for years to come and the result is the Lotus Table. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/310749/image/large-97263ba060be2bae2a7adc49c75d414f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/310749">Can you explain how the table works and why it is so unique and in demand?&nbsp;Round dining tables have, and I believe always will, remain the best choice for maximising space and seating capacity. Additionally, the circle is a universal symbol of totality and&nbsp;wholeness that creates movement towards unity and equitable relationships. In its mechanism, the Lotus table expands on a locking carousel, meaning that you can open and close the table from one place instead of having to walk around and unfold each section in situ. First you pull each pie out and unfold each leaf, then push the leaf into the centre and then each pie to lock it all in place. Underneath the table there is a lock to prevent it from spinning, and the tables can be custom made in terms of size, base design and wood.&nbsp; <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/x_VQ7FA2CK4?&amp;wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> While there are many companies in the world building the Jupe style table, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a> is one of very few that has the ability for full customisation in wood species, inlay details and finish styles while maintaining a rigid substrate which ensures stability.&nbsp;What makes the&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus</a>&nbsp;table furniture applicable to use aboard superyachts and can you share some of those customisations?Round dining tables are specified in many superyacht interiors, our Lotus table is a great choice. Its expandable features also accommodate space restraints that are common on many yachts. The primary advantage that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus</a> provides is our exceptional heirloom quality and precision construction, full custom abilities in all aspects of design requirements and exceptional finishes that are individually created for each client and the durability that is needed in a marine environment.In terms of customisations, we offer a full spectrum of the highest quality woods, including walnut, cherry, teak, oak and more, which can be finished in completely custom designs to match the interiors of your superyacht, as each table is designed and engineered individually. Clients can also choose from a variety of base shapes and designs, with many examples of popular bases, as well as the opportunity to engineer custom legs or turned bases. This means that every Lotus table is entirely unique and like a superyacht, is tailor made to the highest quality; a true work of art. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/310756/image/large-b82a7e2e00e52416dd85468bb0a08197.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/310756">The table is based on an original design, but how did&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a>&nbsp;perfect and develop the table’s design?&nbsp;We have not developed major changes to the original design and engineering. What we perfected is the precision milling and assembly needed for smooth operation and leaf seam consistency. We approached this challenge by minutely breaking down each process and subtracting wasted motions or adding valuable details. We then researched and developed the best materials available today and added specific CNC technologies to execute the precision required.&nbsp;Can you tell us more about the capabilities of your craftsmen and the intricacies of the furniture&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a>&nbsp;produces?&nbsp;Our craftsmen are unique in the woodworking industry due to the focus and endurance each table requires. Each table we build is led by one craftsman from the start to completion. They are involved in all pre-production, material sourcing and scheduling of the specific table. This entire process typically takes 5-7 weeks of pure devotion to many precision and repetitive tasks. Our tables are marathon projects that can only be managed by a craftsman with an exceptional mental fortitude.&nbsp;In addition, we offer a delivery and instalment service to US-based clients because we truly value the customer experience. We are then on hand to teach superyacht crew and owners how to assemble, operate, and care for their showpiece.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/310748/image/large-62fd520c1071458917a093778366b417.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/310748">Where do the materials come from, and how do you guarantee the best and most sustainable woods are sources?&nbsp;We procure the majority of our materials through elite US distributors that provide the most reliable products available. Our hardwood vendors have access to the highest quality lumber and they all provide full wood culling services. If not local, this requires many rounds of pictures and samples sent before we procure a delivery. Additionally, our burl wood veneer vendors offer the same culling services and also provide custom sheet layouts when required.&nbsp;Like the superyachts themselves, every <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus</a> table has been uniquely and expertly crafted by the team at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/7636" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lotus Woodworks (Company)">Lotus Woodworks</a> to become true showstopping centrepieces to any superyacht design.
