Story
Pendennis is currently undertaking a major refit programme for the 42m Feadship Gin-Tonic, bringing together structural engineering, mechanical upgrades and specialist craftsmanship as part of a significant transformation that will prepare the yacht for her next chapter.
Working in close partnership with the owner's representatives, Giles Bassett and James Fiske of Tillow Marine, we are delivering a coordinated programme of works from our Falmouth facility, drawing on the expertise of our engineering, fabrication, paint and project management teams.
A defining feature of the refit is the addition of a new 4m stern extension, currently taking shape in our build hall. This substantial structural modification will increase both onboard space and functionality while integrating seamlessly with the yacht's original Feadship design. Alongside the stern extension, we are carrying out a bridge deck extension, preparations for the replacement of both main engines, and a complete repaint of the hull and superstructure.
As Gin-Tonic progresses through each stage of her transformation, our teams continue to demonstrate the engineering expertise, craftsmanship and project management that define Pendennis' approach to complex refits. We look forward to sharing further updates as the project advances towards completion in 2027.
