The Superyacht Refit Report arrives in timely fashion, with refit yards in both the North and South of Europe reporting a full house for the season. This issue is a must-read for stakeholders looking for real, candid journalism on the nuances the refit market and lifecycle management, as well as adroitly analysed and organised data and information from our team of in-house analysts. 

One common theme has emerged from this report - every business at the top of the refit ladder has expressed a desire to evolve their models, educate and become and more well-rounded lifecycle service proposition. This issue outlines exactly what that means, and the feasibility of expressed future endeavours. It follows on from the roaring success of The Superyacht Owners Report, which received high praise, particularly at this year's Monaco Yacht Show.

The aim of this issue is to provide fresh insight and perspective, even to those who are considered the key decision-makers at the core of the industry. As Will Mathieson, our Editorial and Intelligence Editor writes, “Swimming against the tidal wave of the ‘sustainability’ patter that drowned out most of the pragmatic media discourse this year, another more practical topic that was garnering traction among the new-build yards was the concept of ‘lifecycle management’ and, more specifically, the idea of ‘building with refit in mind’. This concept is neither new nor revelatory.” This issue is a testament to our ability to accurately forecast future trends, and provide the market with detailed, critical analysis for topical subjects that cut deeper than the generic news cycle. 

This issue has been crafted with the typical chronology of the superyacht life cycle in mind, beginning with ‘Building with Refit in Mind’, before transitioning to the ‘The State of the Refit Market’ followed by a presentation of ‘The Market Landscape’ and concluding with ‘The Optimisation of Refit’. This 137-page report is our largest of 2021, with numerous long-form features underlining the most pertinent topics of the refit sector.
