Vittorio d’Albertas started his career designing sails in Italy and Denmark before returning to Italy in 2010 to open Quantum SDG Italy with Filippo Jannello and Francesco “Paco” Rebaudi. As a designer, Vittorio has created sails for boats of all sizes, from small One Designs to the largest and most beautiful yachts of the world. Whether he’s designing cruising or racing sails, his approach is always committed to improving performance and sailing pleasure by looking at the big picture, not only the sails. A self-proclaimed sailing maniac, Vittorio doesn’t just design sails, he uses them too. Owner of a Dinghy 12' and a Finn, when he’s not in the loft, you can usually find Vittorio on the water.
