Like the refit industry itself, “Refit” is constantly expanding and improving. Our directory of shipyards has shown a massive increase in numbers this year as more and more companies bid for the work available. The variety of refits featured in this edition is equally striking. At one extreme, we find the restoration of the J-Class cutter Shamrock V and at the other refits of yachts, such as Tamer II or Mayan Queen III, the purpose of which was to bring the yachts back to pristine condition and make them ready for a further period of intensive use. With its combination of directories and beautifully-presented features, “Refit” is the showcase for an industry that continues to impress.

Yachts featured in this book: Istranka, Magistral, Moonraker, Kaori, Elenesse II, Tamer II, Lady Vista, Shamrock V, Mayan Queen III.
