Yacht Refit Management delivers a wide range of experience, knowledge, qualifications, as well as proven results in the project management of refit and new construction, repairs, and operation on all types of yachts to yacht owners, yacht brokers, yacht designers, and captains. Yacht Refit Management, LLC is operated Ian Gardner and is based out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA. Yacht Refit Manage
ment has been hired to successfully complete projects in many different parts of the globe. Yacht Refit Management’s success is directly attributed to the amalgamation of an all-inclusive graduation in a Ship & Yacht Construction & Design (NZ) apprenticeship with ten thousand hours of university study, design, and hands on construction time coupled with an MCA Master Class 4 license with over 250,000 logged sea miles on race yachts and both private/charter, sail, and motor yachts. This combination has provided the attributes to effectively streamline projects that have worked immediately with builders in boat yards, while at the same time with yacht owners, engineers, and captains. There is no better proven way. Together, both qualifications have shown they reduce time and money, the nemesis of any project, and result in an improvement in the operation, durability, and quality that all promote the value and expectations of a yacht. Ian Gardner’s participation in almost every yacht race and regatta worldwide, including the Americas Cup, has provided Yacht Refit Management a thorough understanding of the complexities demanded from state of the art requirements, operations, and schedules.
