In only a few weeks time the SuperYacht Times intelligence team will host a half-day seminar at the <a href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Seatec - 2019">Seatec</a> exhibition in Carrara, Italy about the superyacht refit market. For a long period of time, there hasn’t been any good, quality data available on the refit market. Most data is based on what is provided by a few shipyards or surveys. It is time that we change the way we keep track of the refit market and create an analysis that matters and based on accurate, legitimate data. <img src="/uploads/store/photo/39649/image/large-9621c1ccdffb1c51b2232334109ff5f3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/39649">The seminar will kick-off with a presentation by SuperYacht Times’ head of intelligence Ralph Dazert and founder Merijn de Waard. They will present their findings from the <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/market-intelligence" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">SuperYacht Times iQ</a> system after having tracked and analysed the refit market over the past few years.The seminar will continue with three different panels with members from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/23" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Lürssen Yachts (Company)">Lürssen</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/209" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Pendennis Shipyard Ltd (Company)">Pendennis</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/681" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Marine (Company)">Monaco Marine</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2870" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Andrea Carlevaris & Partners (Company)">ACP Surveyors</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4477" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Jansen Maritime Services (Company)">JMS Yachting</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/86" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Amico & Co. s.r.l.

Do yards need to expand their services and form strategic partnerships with suppliers and subcontractors?&nbsp;Is investing in shipyards a good idea? Is it a good investment, what is the ROI? Are we not over investing for a very small market? What are the risks?Do we see a change in the business model of refit yards? Some yards only rent out space, others offer a few main services, others don’t have a yard but subcontract everything whereas some yards contract the full refit. What is the difference? <img src="/uploads/store/photo/56754/image/large-76cba8bd1fbc7f00612304483d6176eb.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/56754">Attending the seminar The seminar is open free of charge to all visitors of <a href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Seatec - 2019">Seatec</a> and will be held in the Sala Canova (first floor) on Thursday 4 April from 10:00 until 13:15.&nbsp;Don't miss out on our panel of excellent speakers touching on some very important topics in the refit market.

SuperYacht Times to host ‘trends in superyacht refit’ seminar at Seatec

For a long period of time, there hasn’t been any good, quality data available on the superyacht refit market. It is time that changed.

Franc Jansen, has started a yacht management company following his experience in the commercial and yachting sectors. Jansen Maritime Services will provide services ranging from yacht management, new build and refit supervision to crewing, consultancy and safety management.“I set up Jansen Maritime Services Ltd because I think that yacht management can be done better. I combine my experience in the commercial world and 10 years in yachting to provide an improved service. Thinking out of the box, we use new technology and innovative ideas to enhance our offering. Everything we do is focused on providing and improving,” says Jansen.Jansen Maritime Services will strive to offer yacht owner’s an expedited service by using the latest software that gives all parties immediate access to the same platform. “In the past, companies and owners have worked off a number of different systems” Jansen explains,“But this simply complicates reporting and adds unnecessary working hours on to the delivery of a concise and accurate report to owners plus, it can lead to errors or mistakes,” says JansenBy Charl van Rooy
