The Superyacht Group recently spoke with Miquel À. Lliteras, General Manager at Pendennis Vilanova, to delve into the services offered by Pendennis Vilanova.
Located just outside of Barcelona, Pendennis Vilanova offers yachts easy access to a modern 48-berth marina and technical service centre in the heart of the Mediterranean. A flexible approach and on-site facilities provide the perfect solution for any yacht, whether looking for a brief pit stop, a longer-term berthing option or the ability to conduct a Mediterranean-based refit.
At Pendennis Vilanova, they excel in organising a wide range of services within their facilities, technical marina and shipyard. This flexibility allows clients to choose between collaborating directly with Pendennis Vilanova or utilising their contractors.
Should the client choose to engage Pendennis Vilanova, they can take advantage of various services by their skilled trade departments, encompassing engineering, electrical work, carpentry, and painting. Alternatively, clients can also benefit from the expertise of Pendennis Vilanova’s carefully selected in-house contractors.

The Superyacht Group interviewed Toby Allies, the Managing Director of Pendennis, who explores the synergy among Pendennis's trio of enterprises: Pendennis Falmouth, Pendennis Vilanova, and Northfolk Interiors.
Pendennis Shipyard Ltd, renowned for its expertise in luxury superyachts, specialises in custom build and comprehensive refit ventures at its Falmouth, UK base. Whereas Pendennis Vilanova in Spain offers flexible berthing options at its 48-berth superyacht marina, and the opportunity to conduct Mediterranean-based refits.
Toby elaborated on the significance of mutual support among the different businesses. Notably, they have observed projects originating in Vilanova, with the relationship established at the marina there, seamlessly transitioning to their UK home base in Falmouth for more extensive refit or restoration endeavours.
Both entities collaborate seamlessly with Norfolk Interiors, where not only do projects in Falmouth benefit from Norfolk’s craftsmanship and creativity, but also new construction enquiries stem from the longstanding designer relationships cultivated by Norfolk over the years.

The Superyacht Group are proud to announce the launch of The Superyacht New Build Report 220. Our newest edition looks to discover some of the following key topics:
Are yards doing the hard yards?
- With increasing focus on the operational impacts of today’s superyacht fleet, are new-
build shipyards doing enough to improve their in-house sustainability processes, with
the clock ticking down to the looming deadline of 2030?
The Italian Jobs
- We look at how the key stakeholders in the Italian new-build market are addressing
the shrinking pool of skilled workers across their facilities and, by doing so, preserving
the legacy of the country’s tradition and innovation in the marine sector.
Arksen makes its marque
- Technical director Jim Mair and build captain Ben Bowley give the rundown on the
latest Arksen as the rugged explorer yacht awaits its maiden journey to the
Mediterranean.
Cracking the code
- The REG Large Yacht Code forms the foundation of safe construction in the new-build
sector; how will the 2024 revisions affect the sector?
Baglietto: A benchmark and beyond
- This year marks the 170th anniversary of the Baglietto brand, and with the
introduction of the new XO line of explorer yachts, the shipyard is venturing into new
territory. Here, Dario Schiavo speaks with CEO Diego Michele Deprati about the yard’s
latest product lines, its investment in infrastructure and his views on how the market
will respond given current world geopolitics.
It’s a report for a reason, driving strategies within the industry for 30 years!

The Superyacht Captains Forum Day 2 Programme Highlight in partnership with Yare Networking…
The Captains Brainstorms taking place from 14:30-16:00 will consist of 4 Brainstorms that will invite companies, partners and experts to join each room and participate in a Focus Group/Brainstorm that is designed to answer each of the following questions:
People - How do we attract and retain better people?
Projects - How do we plan and manage better refit projects?
Process - How do we create a batter tendering and contract process in refit?
Planet - How do we reduce our impact by future-proofing the fleet?
Question 1 is designed to discuss and explore, joined-up strategies for the industry to develop models, outreach programmes and a clear opportunity to engage the next generation and the right people to join the industry, both on board and in our companies.
Question 2 will focus on the growth in the refit sector, not only due to the market’s growth but also the demand for rebuilding and repurposing the current fleet, applying future-proof technologies and smart ideas. This will put a huge strain on the refit infrastructure and shipyard supply chain, so we need to explore a better way to plan and allocate resources and shipyard capacity.
Question 3 will discuss the issue of intelligent comparisons of tendering refit projects and getting the project to contract and then delivered on time according to the contract.
Question 4 will look at the fleet of existing yachts and yachts currently in build that are still applying conventional energy sources and have high fossil fuel dependency.

Luca Bassani, Founder of Wally, delves into the path of innovations that have rewritten certain enduring rules within the yachting industry. His idea of innovation in the yachting industry is all about design in terms of functionality. It means that R&D for a shipyard is key and has to be approached comprehensively.

Converting a commercial vessel is not quite as easy as Terry Allen of Mcfarlane Shipdesign makes it look here, but with the right shipyard and donor vessel, conversion projects can be delivered in a fraction of the time and cost of custom yacht delivery.

In the quest for zero emissions, different corners of the marine sector are closing in on nuclear power as a possible solution. The question of its utility for superyachts is gathering cautious momentum and Engel - Jan de Boer - Yacht Segment Director at @[fb_Lloyd's Register:158560757515354]has plenty to say about this fascinating topic.
It’s hard to picture at first glance, but should we doubt this level of ambition from the superyacht industry by underestimating the potential of nuclear power on private vessels? Developments across the marine industry suggest the idea of a nuclear-powered superyacht may not be as science fiction as it once sounded…

This edition of the Superyacht Report is the industry's definitive guide to the Refit market and explores the following topics:
- The Teak Critique
The Superyacht Agency analyses the sustainability of the desire for teak decking in the industry, examines the projected increase in demand from yachts in refit and presents a case for an industry-wide shift towards sustainable sourcing.
- Comforts at the coalface
The rigorous daily routine of a refit can be tough for the crew, but certain shipyards are working hard to ensure they are content, motivated, rested and prepared for the next season.
- ‘If we build sustainably, they will come’
MB92’s Rob Papworth and Philippe Bernard discuss their role in the changing landscape of refit, with the emergence of new technologies, ethical challenges and a shortage of skilled workers.
- The new Lusben
As the revolutionary Maltese Falcon leaves an iconic Italian refit yard that until recently had laid dormant, TSR takes a look at what makes the new Lusben…
- TSF wrap-up
Focus on several workshops and/or keynotes.
- The Refits of Tomorrow
As advanced technologies continue to disrupt the industry, today’s shipyards are leveraging these tools to unlock more customisation while also maintaining a delicate balance between preserving rich craftsmanship and innovation.
It’s a report for a reason, driving strategies within the industry for 30 years.

👀 Out Now: TSF Connect Day Three highlight! 👀
The Third day of The Superyacht Forum 2023, held in partnership with Metstrade, was focused on opening the minds of our delegates around the new possibilities within the superyacht industry’s reach…
The opening keynote saw three brilliant minds take to the stage and share their visions, ideas and applications poised to not only shape the future of our industry but also open our minds to intelligent initiatives.
The afternoon discussion centred around the next frontier of superyachting – the Middle East. Over the next 20 years, we anticipate a migration East from the Mediterranean, into the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Gulf Region. This open debate explored the impact incredible projects such as NEOM and vast investments across the UAE and the Red Sea will have on the future of yachting, from a cruising, ownership, operations and infrastructure perspective.
The bittersweet final address signalled the curtain call for the incredible three-day forum. And as the industry around us evolves, so too is The Superyacht Group. Shortly after, delegates flocked to the METSTRADE halls to join the festivities as the lights dimmed on the forum’s main stage for the final time this year.
We would like to thank you all for joining us and making your voices heard in what was the best TSF: Connect to date.
We will be back in 2024, sooner than you think, and we can’t wait to meet again!
