Yacht Projects International (www.yachtprojects.net) — a provider of super-yacht solutions — is set to expand after moving its UK base to the Hythe site of Solent Refit.

The latter works on classic and modern super-yachts, as well as providing advanced communications; its managing director, Allan Foot, said: “We are delighted that Yacht Projects chose to bring its UK operation here to Hythe.”

Pippa Nicholas, owner of Yacht Projects International, said: “Solent Refit has an amazing location that suits our UK operation. It’s a facility that allows us to carry out work easily and economically alongside the Solent Refit team, and there is the potential to create more jobs in the future as we continue to grow.”
