As you read this, the 70-foot Sunreef Free Spirit should be completing her interior refit. She is a 2008 build that accommodates eight guests. Look for her in the West Mediterranean this summer.

Bina is a 142-foot Mondomarine that got a refit in 2015, inside and out. As you can see in the photograph at right, her interior now has a dark wood sole, light furnishings, and pops of color in the accents. Bina is expected to charter this summer in the West Mediterranean.

In 2015, Kanaloa — which had a top reputation for charter in the past — completed what Hill Robinson is calling more of a restoration than a refit, bringing the 1996 build back up to par and then some.

Brooks Motor Craft in Britain launched the 115-foot Eros in 1939. Her current owners bought her in 1992, and they have been working toward a museum-quality restoration ever since. Most recently, they added new upholstery, deck furniture and more.
