Yacht Refit: How to Plan a Comprehensive Renewal

What is a yacht refit and when is it needed? Bringing paint, teak, interior and hull work into one project.

A refit is the planned, combined renewal of several items on a yacht (paint, teak, interior, hull). Compared with piecemeal work it is both more economical and more consistent; the boat is hauled once and all work is coordinated.

When is a yacht refit needed?

It's usually considered on yachts 10+ years old, after a used purchase, or after a long period of use. A survey report clarifies which items are priority.

What's included in a refit?

Common items: topside paint and colour change, teak deck renewal, interior upholstery/joinery, gelcoat restoration. Engine and mechanical work are outside our scope.

Sequencing and planning

Order matters in a refit; structural and paint work come before upholstery. We plan item by item with project management, giving the duration and cost of each step transparently.
