The brief

Seven years of regular use had left the upholstery worn, at odds with an otherwise exceptional vessel. The owners wanted a full restoration that preserved the boat's value and extended its life, integrating cleanly with the existing interior rather than replacing the yacht.

The outcome

The interior was returned modernised and restored to factory standard, sparing the owners the cost of buying new and giving the yacht a renewed lease of life.

  • Full upholstery removal, restoration, and reassembly
  • Marine-grade materials selected by the owners
  • Components dry-fitted and verified before final fit
  • A modernised interior held to Princess factory standards

How we delivered it

1

Assessment and documentation

We carried out a full precondition audit, documenting the interior with walkaround video and photography to set a clear baseline and give the owners detailed recommendations.

2

Preparation and protection

Personal belongings were removed and stored, and the yacht was protected throughout, from the bathing platform to the lower accommodation, before any work began.

3

Disassembly and restoration

Upholstered finishes were removed with care to avoid damage to the structure, then taken to our on-site upholstery facility where surfaces were stripped, sanded, cleaned to factory standard, and repaired where needed.

4

Dry-fit and reupholstery

Restored components were dry-fitted on board to confirm tolerance and fit, then reupholstered in the owners' selected marine-grade materials, balancing finish with durability.

5

Reassembly and verification

The interior was reassembled to original factory standards with in-house quality checks throughout, then detailed and given a final post-works audit before handover.

“The craftsmanship saved the owners the expense of buying a new S65, giving their boat a renewed lease of life instead. They were delighted with the quality and the revitalised feel of the yacht.”
