rdf:langString Refit

rdf:langString Refitting or refit of boats and marine vessels includes repairing, fixing, restoring, renewing, mending, and renovating an old vessel. Refitting has become one of the most important activities inside a shipyard. It offers a variety of services for an old vessel of any size and kind starting with the construction itself and what is added to it, such as hardware, electric & hydraulic systems, entertainment systems, etc. Ship refits can range from relatively straightforward small changes and new livery up to and including cutting the ship in half to facilitate near-total overhauls and redesign of interior spaces. Refitting can be divided into several main subjects: * Adding or replacing: for example replacing old deck equipment with new or refurbished ones. * Modifying: for example modifying a yacht for participating in winning a regatta. * Customizing: for example customizing a yacht for the owner's needs and desires. * Modernizing: for example modernizing an old yacht with modern styling, technologies and systems. * Restoring: for example restoring an old wooden boat for preservation.
