ABL September Maritime Market Briefing
Join us for ABL’s September Maritime Market Briefing, exploring the following topic:
Superyacht Coatings – Super Costs?
ABL’s Paul Saunders, Head of Yachts, Principal Surveyor, will present our September briefing.
Introduction to the topic
This presentation will cover how superyacht coatings differ from commercial vessels, the typical damages that we see, how repairs are undertaken, and why the repair costs appear to be so eye-wateringly high.
