Focused on small to medium scale refits the Pendennis Vilanova Technical Service Centre is run by a dedicated team of 25 tradespeople. The team is comprised of multi-lingual individuals from both the UK and Spain with a wide range of skills from a variety of disciplines including fabrication, electrical, engineering, joinery, paint and exterior outfit.
