THE COMMISSION

Mengi Yay, rebuilt at Tuzla and redelivered in 2018.

Our team dedicated ten months during the winter to execute a comprehensive refit, enhancing both the yacht's functionality and luxury.

WHAT WE DID
STRUCTURAL MODIFICATIONS

Aft Deck Extension : The aft section was extended by 1 meter, incorporating a new transformer, without altering the yacht’s original shape. Main Deck Expansion : The distance from the front of the seating area to the saloon door was widened by 1.1 meters, providing more spacious and comfortable living areas. Cabin Expansion : Existing cabins were expanded by 2-3 square meters, offering more room and improved guest comfort.

INTERIOR UPGRADES

New Hostess Cabin : Constructed a new cabin designed explicitly for the hostess, ensuring better accommodation and convenience. New Pantry : A new pantry was constructed to enhance the yacht’s catering capabilities, making meal preparations more efficient and enjoyable.

SUMMARY

Our expert team undertook significant modifications to enhance the yacht’s luxury and functionality during this extensive winter refit. From extending the aft deck and installing a transformer to expanding cabins and constructing new interior spaces, we ensured the yacht is more spacious and accommodating for its guests. These upgrades have prepared the yacht for a new season of comfort and sophistication.
