Luxury yacht METEJON deserved a restoration with attention to detail to bring her back to full working order, with all the modern day amenities, while keeping her unique character, classic features and lovely proportions. Ken Freivokh Design and Gino Gandino incorporated all the required features to ensure that she becomes a truly functional and operational vessel for an owner who is world renowned for his love of the classics.
