As advanced technologies continue to disrupt the industry, today’s shipyards are leveraging these tools to unlock more customisation …
A yacht refit spans a broad spectrum of scope and scale, from projects encompassing modest interior makeovers to the ambitious task of extending a vessel’s hull, continuing to defy a one-size-fits-all approach.
In this domain, defined by bespoke and customised requests where no two projects are the same, the refit sector sometimes grapples with existing parameters and logistical restrictions. These, coupled with growing ambition from owners, continue to demand creative thinking and innovative solutions.
Enter Industry 4.0. Across all industries, we see a progressive shift in reshaping conventional practices, transforming how things are done. The adoption and combination of advanced technologies, such as 3D technologies, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) are now coming to the fore within yachting. They are playing a pivotal role and offer opportunities to redefine the refit process.
