Welcome aboard Ursus

ReCrafted in 2025 into a pocket explorer, Ursus was completely reimagined by the team at Mulder Design and brought to life at Royal Balk Shipyard. She has already earned the Judges' Commendation at the BOAT International World Superyacht Awards and is in the running for an ISS Design Award tonight.

Next stop: Fort Lauderdale

Our newest refit is already there, we’re on our way.

Awatea completed a seven month refit in May and hasn’t stopped cruising since. The 45-metre Royal Hakvoort-built motor yacht has been showing off her new colour scheme in London and now in the U.S..

She'll be berthed at Safe Harbor Rybovich during the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, and we're looking forward to seeing her again.

Get in touch to meet the team and find out how we can transform your yacht.

A royal standard in yacht ReCrafting since 1798.

11/08/2026

A superyacht refit is not a maintenance event. It is a capital project with fixed timelines, significant financial exposure, and no room for error once it begins. What separates a controlled project from a problematic one is not the yard itself, but how the project is managed.
