Scope of Works Our Demolition team joined the vessel in Puerto Rico and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean demolishing our deck 12 observation lounge. This large area was then split into 3 different zones including a Night club, Chill Zone and a VIP lounge. Our scope included decorating throughout including spray painting all columns and deck head, flooring throughout with some very intricate wood strip, Corian tables & bar counters, re-upholstery of all banquettes and soft furnishings, Glass partitions and Stainless steel fabrication to name some of the work. We transported our mobile workshop and a storage container to Germany which we used for the duration of the refit.
