Launched in 2009 by the respected Dutch shipyard, Vitters, the agile and exquisite CERVO has since undergone extensive refits as recent as 2024/25 at Pendennis Vilanova, Spain. No stranger to transformations, she has also benefited from a comprehensive overhaul at Pendennis in 2018 and Orams in 2022, upholding her status as a seaworthy marvel.
A product of the visionary minds at Tripp Design Naval Architects, this sleek vessel is constructed with a Green Marine carbon composite hull. This advanced composite construction not only ensures the delivery of robust durability but also contributes to a lighter weight build which optimises performance.
The interior, a masterstroke by Nauta Yachts Design, exudes a comforting and contemporary charm. It caters elegantly to up to 8 guests, with an accommodating crew of five set in three separate cabins. Thus, promising an intimate, yet efficiently serviced sailing journey to the sea explorers aboard.
The UK’s stature in global superyacht construction is evolving. Leading the way is Pendennis, the British yard known for its refit strategy, incessant workforce investment, and international growth. Anchored by Toby Allies, the Group’s Managing Director, Pendennis is shifting gears despite a softer new-build yacht output, firmly instituting its place as a refit centre of excellence. Allies accentuates the UK’s enduring prowess in service, design, and OEM supply, with Pendennis ‘‘punching well above our weight.’’
Meriting its status through investment in people and facilities, Pendennis aims at strengthening its position in the long-term by responding to the increasing number of yachts requiring refits. It continues to churn out custom new-build projects as well, with notable recent additions including the 34.9-metre Fox (2024) and 39.4-metre Halekai (2020).
