Wild Berry underwent a comprehensive refit and warranty programme at Whangārei.

The project involved extensive yard involvement across structural, mechanical, electrical, and cosmetic systems. Works included underwater coatings, propulsion and running gear servicing, HVAC and electrical fault resolution, interior modifications, and a range of manufacturer warranty corrections and refinements.

Overall, the scope represented a complex, multi-phase rectification and upgrade programme, addressing both performance-critical systems and onboard finish quality across the vessel.
