To Lusben, this award represents the realisation of a complete design transformation, which was fulfilled with the implementation of fully custom ideas, gifting the owner with a yacht that was refitted in its entirety, and delivered within an extremely tight deadline. It is this recognition that promises to give the refit sector a new significance within the world of yachting.
