Rivergate Marina and Shipyard completed a refit and 40-year Lloyd’s survey close-out on the 46-metre Feadship motor yacht Explora. The vessel returned in December after an eight-week refit that began in September 2025, then departed for Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea before heading back to Brisbane.
42-metre motor yacht MY Istros returned to Rivergate Marina & Shipyard in September 2025 for her 5-year survey and inspection period. It was the vessel’s third visit to the yard, following annual maintenance there in August 2024 and earlier specialist work. Rivergate said the survey involved detailed inspections and maintenance.
Rivergate Marina & Shipyard has completed a six-month refit of the 24-metre aluminium catamaran Reef Ranger, a marine environment protection vessel based in Cairns. The yard said the work included a custom hybrid system, new MAN engines and an exhaust aftertreatment system that it described as an Australian first.
