The 58.8-metre explorer yacht Seawolf has been relaunched by UK yard Pendennis following a two-year refit. According to BOATPro, she is now on her sea trials just off the coast of Falmouth.
The yacht arrived at Pendennis' facilities in March 2022, with the shipyard listing exterior styling modifications, "extensive" engineering and electrical work and a full repaint of the hull and superstructure as some of the works to be completed. The yacht has also been outfitted with "new, luxury guest and crew interiors", though any further details of the refit are currently being kept tightly under wraps.
First delivered by Dutch yard J&K Smit in 1957, the classic superyacht began its life as an oceangoing tug before being converted into a superyacht between 1998 and 2004. Her last refit was in 2016.
Seawolf’s original layout includes accommodations for up to 12 guests in five cabins, including a full-beam master suite located on the private owner's deck, complete with an office and pantry. Her deck spaces also boast an al fresco cocktail bar, a swimming pool and plenty of sunbathing and lounging areas.
An ice-strengthened hull allows for remote cruising and her extensive travels have taken her to a number of exotic destinations including Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands, French Polynesia, Fiji and the Dominican Republic. She was a popular charter yacht and boasts a range of toys including Jet Skis and windsurfers.
"We enjoyed cruising the Cornish coastline and visiting Pendennis in 2020 and are pleased to be returning to such a beautiful location and professional shipyard," Seawolf’s owners shared back in 2022. "We are looking forward to the project and working with the team from Pendennis."
The British yard hit the headlines earlier this year with the delivery of Fox, its highly-anticipated compact explorer yacht. Said to "represent the very best of British engineering and interior design", the 34.9-metre made her debut at this year's Cannes Yachting Festival.
