Working like a well-oiled machine, the refit process involves many parts and people. The role of the designer is to be a leading authority on how an existing superyacht design can be refreshed, reorganised and relaunched. Here we ask two designers upfront about their experiences during some of the industry’s more impressive refits and transformations.&nbsp;Luca Dini of&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/58" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Luca Dini Design & Architecture (Company)">LUCA DINI Design &amp; Architecture</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/90492/image/large-9805458b7b85564c883dccd0ae94d1a2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/90492">Now listed as a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yachts/for-sale" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">yacht for sale</a>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2208" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Imperial Yachts (Company)">Imperial</a>, the 41.1-metre&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/78" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Legenda41.1m (134'10&quot;)Mondomarine SpA2009">Legenda</a>&nbsp;is considered by some to be one of the most versatile and unique superyachts to leave the&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/72" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Mondomarine SpA (Company)">Mondomarine</a>&nbsp;shed.

By using balanced colours, we were able to reach a classical-modern style, with mirrors and a light palette that collaborate to make the perception of the space wider. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/78" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Legenda41.1m (134'10&quot;)Mondomarine SpA2009">Legenda</a> is an extremely comfortable and livable boat, with well-lit and airy interior spaces and an intense connection between the interior and exterior areas. During the refit works, we paid great attention to the layout and how best to use the spaces. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/67845/image/large-66a67a5a23cd2d7c23896a634a282bdd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/67845">Without upsetting the original binding style and briarwood she was born with, the damaged burl wood panels were replaced and the fabric panels were upgraded with brighter textures and galuchat leather accents. The ceiling dome was enriched with 8x8 golden leaves created by a specialised artisan from Florence. The free-standing furniture was replaced with more modern pieces by Visionnaire and Fendi, plus a chandelier from Baldi. We also intervened in the décor and used some of the most classic images of Massimo Listri and exposed them in a modern way with no glass, using the original panels as framing. In the outdoor areas, we used Summit teak line free-standing furniture and upgraded the upholstery and marble countertops.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/67851/image/large-eb55a3de5f5e729f15110b93cbd77a3f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/67851">What is it like for a designer to be involved in a refit? It is a very stimulating challenge to have to always come up with something different. Elegance, harmony and balance always play an extremely important role in my projects, and even more so during a refit when you are intervening in an environment that has already been created. Refitting is always a matter of extreme sensitivity because you must find harmony between the existing and the new: a very stimulating test for us designers.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/67855/image/large-783e46e59ff546150011acb8c74d1864.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/67855">Tommaso Spadolini&nbsp;of&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/118" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Design Studio Spadolini S.r.l (Company)">Design Studio Spadolini</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/24762/image/large-a627ab0a4f80c10060f6d716f9fe0861.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/24762">What are the standout refit projects within your extensive portfolio?&nbsp;We have been involved in many interesting refits, including some smaller yachts such as the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2059" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Magnum Marine (Company)">Magnum</a> 70 Gigagi, 20-metre classic <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A.

The original boat had no hull windows and was built on a very traditional layout and so we opened up windows in the hull which required new certification. The layout was completely revised with a big open-space lounge on the main deck and three comfortable cabins, a captain’s cabin, a laundry room. We also added two whisper-quiet <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2383" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Seakeeper, Inc.

I think it is important for a designer to be involved, especially as the refit market has steadily grown in importance and so, we tend to have at least one major refit on the go in addition to a lot of smaller projects.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/102237/image/large-ba7a1aa07fc5e0bafbb1ae4407bd48fd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/102237">This article is taken from <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/first-summer-issue-of-the-superyacht-times-newspaper-out-now" target="_blank">the May/June edition of The SuperYacht Times newspaper</a>.

Featuring a striking grey-blue hull with black and chrome accents, up to 10 guests are accommodated on board over five staterooms including a main-deck master suite one full beam VIP cabin, two twin and one double cabin.

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/165227/image/large-08808d345350d0ac4a02578cf4b3ead3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/165227">

With ocean crossing capabilities and optional Ice Class compliance, this vessel is conceived to be able to explore every sea around the world, from the French Riviera to the Antarctic, in absolute comfort and safety. Her designers also note that it is possible to adopt a state-of-the-art green hybrid propulsion to cut fuel consumption, running costs and emissions.

Speaking of the development of the project, Mattia Ruocco of Federico Fiorentino says: “We decided to design an expedition yacht because we recognised that it was the right project for Eurocraft’s fantastic new lineup, in continuity with their build history and expertise in the explorer segment. Yacht &amp; Villa International is the Central Agent for this project, as the company are also currently cooperating with Eurocraft on several other projects. The primary inspiration for the project came about after a very interesting conversation with a yacht broker from the company, who suggested to translate the nature, the strong personality and philosophy of a Range Rover into a yacht concept that features powerful design language, great reliability and ocea​n crossing capabilities.”

The Eurocraft-built 43.5 metre explorer Baron Trenck

There has long been a more adventurous aspect of yachting, a side which has been particularly developing and gaining considerable popularity during recent years. More and more, sailing a superyacht does not only involve visiting familiar destinations, but treading outside of the beaten track for a more expedition-style experience. Such travels obviously add specific requirements to the vessels involved, still combining luxury, style and comfort but with a more venturous take on superyachting. Baron Trenck, built at Eurocraft, is a superyacht that perfectly suits these requirements, adding a spicy edge to all her adventures. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140756/image/large-8b36e4f49858fae651484453ea37df85.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140756">Baron Trenck's exterior look is the perfect introduction to what she is all about, combining traditional lines of a modern superyacht with influences of a strong, confident ice-breaker. Looks aren't just merely for aesthetic purposes, since a higher bow enables her to properly handle bow spray and a wider beam assuring a smooth ride no matter how rough the seas get. All this combined with a draft of three metres allows Baron Trenck to easily manoeuvre everywhere, from the roughest seas to the smallest bays. Meanwhile, guests are supplied with all comfort and luxury, turning this superyacht into the perfect choice for a stylish charter with an attractive, adventurous twist. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140757/image/large-5ea3ec231047fe4a0f4a3e578617590c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140757">As her exterior designs, all interiors aboard Baron Trenck seamlessly combine traditional elegance with intelligent functionality. Upon boarding, the aft deck is a spacious area without any fixed furniture. Instead, a variety of chairs, tables and loungers can be placed here to suit the guests' needs, allowing a flexible layout for a variety of occasions. The swimming and diving platform allows guests to take a refreshing swim, making this section an attractive area for all day round entertaining. From here, the main saloon can be found, which is a spacious and light room with a classic ambiance. Dark lacquered wood and crème coloured carpeting and upholstery are the main design ingredients, with curvy furnishing and a fresh, classic floral print adding to the saloon's pleasant personality. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140758/image/large-bd4c947dd4ae1d0aeea252a95da9902e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140758">The whole atmosphere is warm, calm and inviting, with the main saloon being divided into three sections. Aft, there is the bar and pantry area, which allows a perfect service for guests on either the aft deck or the central lounge section of the main saloon. The latter consists of a set of long opposite sofas placed around two coffee tables and a set of armchairs and Ottomans. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140759/image/large-bc9dd262fc9730b1a4251b94f47a4c08.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140759">This arrangement allows for a wide variety of social occasions in a pleasantly formal ambiance and with wide windows all around, every part of the main saloon is supplied with ample amounts of natural light. Fore, the formal dining area consists of a spacious setup around a grand classic dining table seating 10. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140760/image/large-4db9827db9e45c470ecd46922edffac7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140760">Baron Trenck accommodates a company of up two 10 guests in 5 staterooms. The fore section of the main deck has been reserved for the spacious master quarters, consisting of a private office, large full beam stateroom with ample storage facilities and a luxurious en suite with large bath, separate shower area with monsoon shower and separate toilet facilities. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140761/image/large-0172cd53c4db367e24c959c4dea936a7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140761">The overall design in these quarters are similar to the main saloon: warm, light and elegantly classic. While the overall ambiance is undeniable classic, there is no abundance in overly detailed knick-knacks nor a design which drowns in a bustle of bells and whistles. This goes for all areas onboard Baron Trenck, resulting in a clean elegance everywhere onboard. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140762/image/large-08ab0069e88f0264a7b57ea5ba2bb0cb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140762">Through the central staircase, separating the main saloon from the master suite and connecting all interior decks, the lower deck where 3 of the vessel's 4 remaining guest staterooms can be reached. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140763/image/large-8c55ca5250b965b3f994c1f657e3c758.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140763">With one spacious VIP stateroom found in the central lower deck, one double cabin and one twin, there is a suitable accommodation available onboard for every guest. A second twin cabin can be found on the upper deck. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140764/image/large-8e7f49cbf08035b326b24c46be6eb5a2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140764">The full beam VIP stateroom is large and stylish, with Baron Trenck's signature warm classic ambiance and elegant feel, with ample wardrobe storage and an office area. The en suite bathroom has a large bath and separate toilet facilities. Like the VIP suite, all three twin cabins have an inviting intimate feel and are fitted with en suite bathrooms with large shower areas. Overall, Baron Trenck's guest accommodation is spacious, luxurious and designed with a delicate elegance. She is obviously all about understated luxury, allowing all guests a perfect charter experience without distracting from the adventurous experiences, of which there are undoubtedly many to be experienced. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/140765/image/large-a99d976630a0d91f0a2865e604193d87.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/140765">One of many luxurious amenities can be found on the upper deck, opposite the twin guest cabin, in the form of a lush spa cabin. Here, a large sauna and steam room and large monsoon shower are available at guests' disposal. From here, the spacious and intimate sky lounge can be found, with seating area and bar for intimate social occasions, after dinner drinks or some relaxing after a nice sauna session.

A large aft sun deck with loungers and perfect views is available for those wanting to soak up some sun. The central section of the sun deck, optionally covered by large parasols for some cooling shade, offers a second al fresco dining arrangement with a large round table accommodating every guest. Fore, the large Jacuzzi and collection of big sun pads allow guests to cool down, enjoying each other’s company in complete privacy and framed by a magnificent view.
