Founded in 1905 as a central Austro-Hungarian naval base, the Refit Shipyard of Šibenik developed its services and facilities through maintenance of demanding navy fleets. In 2004, the yard was privatised by the Nautical Centre Prgin (NCP) with the aim of becoming the foremost refit centre for yachts and commercial vessels on the eastern side of the Mediterranean.

“I am very pleased to welcome NCP-Repair Shipyard Šibenik Ltd into the ICOMIA Superyacht Refit Group” said ICOMIA Secretary General Tony Rice. “This important refit destination and industry should play a strong part in the Refit Group’s future activities and ensure the Group remains at the forefront of quality refit, repair and maintenance yard representation.”

We believe that our membership in ICOMIA Superyacht Refit Group will enable us to act on solving the restrictive factors for the development of the market for mega yachts in Croatia.”
