As well as building and refitting beautiful yachts, we think it’s important to keep our staff healthy and happy, make our clients and crew feel welcome, and support our local community. In this section, you will find all the aspects of what we do – the Pendennis experience. Here, you can keep up to date with project news, meet the team, and browse past issues of our annual magazine, Voyage. Are you interested in life as a Pendennis apprentice, or perhaps you’re a member of yacht crew looking for tips on how best to enjoy your time with us? You’ll find it all here in our blog.
