47m motor yacht Aquamarina is the seventh vessel in the ISA 470 series launched in 2006, featuring a bold paint colour, same as her sister-ship, luxury yacht Ellix Too. Undergoing a successful six-month refit by Rivergate Marina and Shipyard in a partnership with Superyacht Solutions, the Aquamarina superyacht now boasts a new beautiful pearlescent and blue metallic paintwork.

Often the pivotal decision in a successful repaint of a superyacht depends on multiple factors aligning to achieve a truly outstanding result.

Rivergate Marina and Shipyard located in Brisbane, Australia certainly has proven itself as a facility of choice within the superyacht community.

In late September 2011 the Rivergate project management team commenced the exciting task of refinishing the 47m superyacht Aquamarina.

Many of the leading Australian superyacht painters have recognised the potential in Rivergate and its facilities, among them is Superyacht Solutions.

Superyacht Solutions were approved to execute the refinish on the luxury yacht Aquamarina, based on their proven success with metallic and pearlescent products.

Superyacht Solutions has decades of experience in both new builds and refinishing of large yachts. The company is one of the world’s most prolific exponents of large scale metallic applications.

Located below the cyclone belt, Brisbane has a sub-tropical climate which produces perfect conditions for painting with minimal delays and creates an efficient project location. Capitalising on these conditions, Rivergate has successfully project managed complex, simultaneous refits and repaints to further reduce time in the yard.
