What Can a Refit Include?
Scope is defined based on yacht type and usage profile. Common refit areas include:
Electrical & Energy Systems
Batteries, inverter/chargers, DC-DC, solar integration, energy monitoring, wiring improvements.
Navigation & Electronics
Chartplotters, radar, AIS, VHF, sensors, and onboard network upgrades.
Deck Hardware & Safety
Winches, blocks, deck fittings, safety gear, and performance-driven deck layouts.
Comfort & Onboard Living
Cooling/AC, lighting, pumps, water systems, and comfort-focused improvements.
Pre-Refit Technical Assessment (Survey)
A survey helps clarify priorities, risks, and budget before committing to a larger refit scope.
