The 31 metre Newcastle explorer yacht Just4Us has been hauled out at KRM Refit & Repair for a comprehensive refit that will see her hull extended by four metres. Work on the US-built explorer is expected to take nine months and will include an extension and redesign of the transom area as well as a complete rebuild of her interiors. Other major changes will include a redesigned flybridge deck and enlarging of the lower deck cabin portholes to allow more natural light to filter into the lower deck.

KRM Yacht Refit & Repair has shared a refit update on details of the 29-metre Heesen motor yacht Newal. The classic 1988 yacht entered the Istanbul-based refit and repair yard on 1 January this year with an expected completion date of March 2023.

Having entered the KRM refit facility nine months ago in Turkey, the 29 metre Heesen yacht Newal is on track for a fully-fledged refit after lying unattended in a marina for two years. With an estimated duration of 15 months, the work surrounding the refit is substantial, including an entirely new interior, new exterior spaces and 3.6-metre extension. With that, all electric infrastructure, piping systems and engine rooms will also see a complete overhaul.

KRM Yacht Refit & Rebuild have been shortlisted for Motor Yacht 25 – 40 Metres in The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2022. The key aspect of this refit project was to improve the yacht while still preserving the respect for the yacht brand’s origins and features. The goal for KRM Yacht Refit & Rebuild was to evolve her in a smooth way, so that she may still carry out her identity proudly whilst modernising her image. The reform of this motoryacht, ex Yannina to Impulse, is a comprehensive refit project which includes exterior & interior innovations.
