We provide expert yacht repair services to ensure your vessel remains in top condition. Damage sustained to a yacht is never a happy time for a yacht owner. As a team, Berthon Spain are pleased to be able to assist whenever and wherever possible; getting things ship shape again within a convenient time frame and to a high standard. As one might expect, it is critical that any yacht repairs are finalised in conjunction with our marine surveyors, so that boat owners and insurers can be sure that a yacht has a clean bill of health after any incident.
Throughout the years, we have had boats come to us for yacht repair after lightning strikes, after collisions in a tight anchorage, with structural damage to the fibreglass and fibreglass delamination.
One example from a number of interesting projects, a yacht that had suffered some serious electrical corrosion. This required major repairs below the water line with the replacement of one of the rudders, the rudder bearings, all of the through hull fittings, the P-bracket, the propeller shaft, the propeller and all of the refrigeration equipment. With a project such as this, Berthon Spain’s team are not only working closely with a surveyor but also the build yard, to ensure that the repairs are indistinguishable from the original fit out.
When Berthon Spain’s team carry out this type of yacht repair, as a matter of procedure, we will always check everything else on-board to make sure there has been no knock-on effect caused by the damage. Quite often owners want to take this time whilst the yacht is out of operation to make some improvements and updates, such as renewing the electronics after a lightning strike. Because Berthon Spain has a multi-faceted team, we are more than qualified to help or offer advice during this process.
The service provided by Berthon Spain ensures that owners experience seamless coordination throughout every stage of their project. With a dedicated Berthon Spain team member serving as the single point of contact, clients can rest assured that their needs are comprehensively managed.
We make sure that everyone is updated as regularly as possible through the process. If during the yacht repair period we come across other faults or there are delays with delivery of equipment or other bumps in the road, we ensure that these are scheduled carefully so as not to cause unnecessary disruption or delays for the yacht owner.
