Mission
A fragmented industry, brought into alignment: turning shared challenges into shared standards.

The American Refit Leadership Council was founded to bring together the shipyards, yacht refit professionals, and partners who keep the fleet moving, through working groups, common standards, and open collaboration across the yacht refit industry.

Industry Announcement June 16, 2026

What we’ve built, and where we’re going.

In June, we unveiled the progress of the American Refit Leadership Council: the working groups, the dashboards, and the road ahead for the yacht refit industry. That work continues, and it’s picking up momentum.
Membership in ARLC is by invitation. If you lead a yacht refit business and want a voice in shaping the standards and workforce development that will define the next chapter of this industry, request an invitation today.
