Decide what each part needs before setting a refit budget. A working drawer with a worn finish, a damaged fastening and a panel that blocks access require different scopes. Use the condition survey to divide the project into repair, refinishing and replacement.
Give every part a condition and a next decision
Record the panel code, room, condition, access and visible symptoms. Photograph useful details from the same location. Ask a marine specialist to diagnose recurring moisture or suspected substrate damage before specifying surface treatment.
Try a local repair on one representative part. Compare hands-on opening, appearance from normal distance, cleaning and the time required for repeat work.
Approve the finish before producing a full set
Put the refinished sample against the original under the yacht's ordinary light. Check grain, colour, sheen, fixing edges and retention of original profiles. Agree which fabrics need a removable cover and how they will be cleaned.
Ask the workshop for a phase plan with protected circulation and access. Order by verified measurement and approved revision. Keep spare pieces or product references where included.
Set phase boundaries and acceptance
Tunisia's tourism board offers general sailing information. Ask the marina and yard directly about available dates, allowed work and whether the boat must move. Set out owner access and work dependencies in each phase.
At handover operate retained and repaired doors, remove covers and check adjacent work. Record what was repaired, what was kept and the product used for touch-ups.
