Restoration Articles

Making her graceful return from the brink of demolition is the classic 34.1-metre Trumpy yacht, Maemere. The yacht, having arrived at McMillen Yachts for a thorough restoration in 2022, is currently being rebuilt from the keel up under the talented direction of Newport-based studio, Langan Design. The process has seen the interiors of the vessel removed, with attention now turned towards re-planking the bow.

“The work hasreally picked up pace over the last year,” shares Thomas Degrémont, partner at Langan Design, noting that the yacht has been reworked to approximate her original lines as closely as possible. “The owner is eager to retain some of the yacht’s original elements, such as the cast iron tubs and mouldings, promoting a blend of heritage and modernity in the refurbished design.”
