Nautical enthusiasts know how important it is to take care of your boat, whether small or large, every year at the end of the summer it is a must to pay attention to your yacht . The set of maintenances that result in a redevelopment both on an aesthetic and functional-technological level is refitting , which gives new life to everyone's boat thanks to a series of activities that we will see in detail below.
Nautical refitting: what is it
During the period in which the boat would remain at rest, it is time to decide to make changes to it, whether these are aesthetic implementations for personal taste or instead you want to adapt your boat to more modern standards . It is an activity that requires a certain amount of expenditure both in terms of money and time, which is why it is good to rely on professionals in the sector. Refitting starts when at the end of the summer season the boat is left in trusted storage where it can be refurbished for the following season.
Some of the changes you can make here are:
- additions or replacements : this means that it is possible to change parts or all of the upholstery or options to make the boat even more comfortable and the experience on board more rewarding;
- structural modifications aimed at making the boat compliant with standards that change from year to year;
- customization both regarding the aesthetic part, but also that of operation ;
- renovation: designed above all for those who own a model that is dated or those who have purchased a boat and want to make it more similar to their personal tastes or give it a new light;
- restoration : if you find yourself in the presence of an old boat that you want to give the possibility of a second life.
Nautical refitting: what it consists of
Some of the activities found under the name of Refitting are painting, repair, fixing and renovation . A job aimed at ensuring that the boat is always 100% even over the years. First of all, a refitting intervention aims to remove all the vital organs of a boat, empty it and deprive it of machinery and guidelines, in order to replace what is now old and unusable and give new light to what can instead be saved. .
But it's not just about this, we're talking about something much more demanding which concerns the engines, but also the paints, finishes, interior furnishings of the cabin and so on. A sort of total or partial restoration to be done on the boat to allow it to always be at its full potential. Life at sea is quite hard especially for machinery and paints, months and months exposed to atmospheric agents and salt can cause damage both on an engine level but also on an aesthetic level of the image that the boat has.
