RESTYLING and REFIT: Ares Custom Yachts breathed new life into this classic yacht with a comprehensive restyling and refit. They meticulously addressed the imperfections in the hullside, identifying and repairing distortions highlighted by orange spots above the stripes. The result is a sleeker, more refined exterior that retains its original charm.
INTERIOR and EXTERIOR: The interior and exterior of the yacht have been rejuvenated to meet modern standards of luxury and comfort. Ares Custom Yachts undertook extensive joiner work, enhancing the yacht interiors with exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. Simultaneously, the exterior received a fresh look, with sandblasting revealing the pristine gelcoat underneath.

Yacht Engine Overhauls: The yacht's performance was significantly improved through engine overhauls. Ares Custom Yachts dismantled the starboard engine, removing the transmission and initiating a comprehensive breakdown of the hydraulic system. All hardware was removed, and fiberglass repairs were completed to ensure optimal functioning.
In addition to these key enhancements, Ares Custom Yachts addressed previous repair issues that had trapped water, ensuring the yacht's longevity and reliability. They also prepared the engine room for painting, creating a clean and organized space that reflects the yacht's renewed vitality.
