Pendennis Falmouth is a full service facility capable of building custom yachts, as well as undertaking substantial restoration and remodelling projects or routine class/flag refit works. The on-site facilities include a selection of purpose built workshops, offices and storage for our tradespeople and crew, as well as two 75m undercover dry docks, which are 100% environmentally controlled with a state-of-the-art dust extraction system – perfect for large scale superyacht painting.
Two new 90m construction halls have been created alongside an additional 45m hall. The central spine holds hosts project offices and workshops with direct access to the construction bays. An additional four storey building has increased office and workshop space with the addition of an impressive hospitality suite.
Construction of a non-tidal wet basin was completed in May 2015, providing direct seaward access to Pendennis with a holding area before and after their time in the yard, as well as allowing alongside berthing and short refit works for yachts of up to 100m. Hard standing refit space is also available for yachts up to 800t.
The Pendennis Yard Development project is part financed by the European Regional Development Fund Programme 2007 to 2013. The Department for Communities and Local Government is the managing authority for the European Regional Development Fund Programme, which is one of the funds established by the European Commission to help local areas stimulate their economic development by investing in projects which will support local businesses and create jobs.

Conveniently positioned just 45 minutes from the centre of Barcelona and 30 minutes from the city’s international airport – Vilanova Grand Marina provides the perfect base in the heart of the Mediterranean, offering 48 berths for superyachts ranging between 25 and 130 metres including a 24-hour security service.
Pendennis recently announced a major investment with plans to build a service facility alongside the marina. “Besides already being a first-class marina close to Barcelona, we plan to build a refit facility alongside from where we will be able to enhance our offering to the superyacht fleet in the Mediterranean region,” says Mike Carr, Joint Managing Director at Pendennis.
The first major change to be implemented by Pendennis will be the addition of a 620t travel hoist by the winter 2019 season to enhance the haul out capability at Vilanova Grand Marina. A plan to develop the on-site facilities will be rolled out during the following year, all the while supported by the depth of knowledge, expertise and skill of the workforce at Pendennis. We are now taking bookings for the 2019/20 winter season, please contact the sales team to find out more.
