New Construction and Yacht Refit Applications

Over time all yachts experience various wears and damages. These damages are mainly caused by external factors, use and seawater. Yachts that are subjected to seawater and wind that carries seawater for a long time will experience abrasion. Generally, most common abrasion is seen in the paint of the yacht.

Other than annual maintenance, some situations might need a more comprehensive process. This process is known as yacht renewal or yacht refit covers all procedures from planning to application.  Budget for refit project must be evaluated carefully.

In some cases, individuals who want to purchase a new yacht ask for new construction. Customised yacht design will combine all details desired by the yacht owner on a single yacht. Customised design enables demands to be fulfilled for both interior and exterior design.

Yacht Refit Projects

Yacht refit projects are complex projects that require extensive planning. In the refit process, selection of suitable shipyard, supplier and sub-contractor are extremely important. Selection of materials is as important as individuals working in this process.

Budget must be carefully planned in the refit process. Exceeding refit budget is common. As the yacht spends more time in the shipyard, it is more possible to exceed the allocated budget. Therefore, refit duration must be as short as possible.

Another point to be considered in the refit process is including the crew to the process. Problems and deficiencies of the yacht can be seen clearly by the crew rather than yacht owner. Therefore, captain’s recommendations should be considered in refit plans.
