Anyone who has ever been there is usually impressed on their first visit. The MB92 site in Barcelona is lined with one yacht after another, most of them over 60 metres long, and they are all being worked on diligently. The shipyard, which was founded in 1992 and is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, specialises in the refit business and has enormous capacities. It has 82,000 square metres of land and 41,000 square metres of water, a 220-metre dry dock, 45 workshops for subcontractors and a repair quay where 14 yachts can be moored. Investments are also currently being made in a 4000-tonne lift, which will be ready for operation at the end of 2018. Around 100 formats moor at MB92 every year, with an average length of around 70 metres.
