Coco de Mer: Rebuilt. Relaunched. Ready for Sea.
Coco de Mer: Rebuilt. Relaunched. Ready for Sea.
After months of work at our facilities, Coco de Mer has reached one of the most eagerly anticipated milestones of the project: her relaunch. A major achievement that marks the completion of an exceptional intervention, defined not by the size of the vessel, but by the scope, challenge and technical complexity of the work involved.
Following the catamaran’s capsizing, the project went far beyond a conventional repair. The vessel underwent a comprehensive refit, retaining only her main structure while virtually all systems, installations, equipment and finishes were removed, rebuilt or replaced to bring her back to the condition required to return safely to sea.
To undertake a project of this nature, a large temporary steel-framed enclosure was installed at Astilleros de Mallorca, creating a dedicated workspace specifically adapted to the needs of the rebuild. Over several months, numerous specialist companies and teams worked in close coordination, combining a wide range of disciplines and highly diverse areas of expertise within a single project plan.
The relaunch was followed by another significant milestone: the arrival and installation of her mast, a large component that travelled a considerable distance before reaching Astilleros de Mallorca and whose handling required a carefully planned and coordinated operation.
Coco de Mer is also a good example of the way we approach a refit at Astilleros de Mallorca. For us, the relevance of a project is not determined by the length of the yacht, but by the challenge it represents. Complex interventions, unusual technical requirements and projects demanding a high degree of coordination are precisely where our experience, flexibility and problem-solving capabilities come into their own.
From her arrival at the shipyard to her return to the water, Coco de Mer reflects that philosophy: taking on demanding projects, bringing together the right expertise and resources, and turning technical complexity into a successful result.
