Why refit a yacht with Burgess?
Refit a yacht
Discover the Burgess difference
Burgess is a specialist in large, complex yacht refits. No other organisation has our track record, project management experience, operational knowledge, contract negotiation ability, in-house support, commissioning and re-delivery expertise. Strong relationships with all parties, such as designers, legal teams, shipyards, consultants, Class and Flag states, enable us to select the right partners and build the ideal team.
Turning your yacht into the one you want to own
In our experience, undertaking a major refit is a complex but rewarding process. It allows an existing yacht to be transformed into your exact requirements whether that be a major interior refit, total repaint, upgrade to electronics systems, an engineering upgrade or a hull extension.
Reducing risk, improving quality and managing costs
As your refit specialist, we will be independent, impartial and remain involved throughout. As experts in added-value engineering, our cost management is scrupulous and we will re-deliver your refitted yacht to the agreed budget and minimise any possibility of project delays.
In-house expertise acting on your behalf
A major refit is a significant investment and to have the right team overseeing your interests is key. Burgess will act as your single point of contact, from contract negotiation all the way through to re-delivery, to ensure that the refit process is as enjoyable and rewarding for you as possible.
