Engineering excellence,
on every ocean.
From race-winning performance engineering to naval architecture and full vessel systems integration, our technical team brings deep expertise across every discipline of modern yacht design and operation.
Built to win
Our racing consultants combine competitive sailing experience with engineering rigour to deliver measurable performance gains. Whether preparing for an offshore race, a grand prix circuit event, or a round-the-world campaign, we cover every detail.
Performance Optimisation & CFD
Vessel assessment covering sail trim, weight distribution, polar analysis, and speed targets. CFD-informed hydrodynamic analysis of hull, keel, and appendage design to identify drag sources and model improvements.
Rigging & Deck Hardware
Rig tuning, load calculations, rod and wire rigging solutions, block and winch specification, running and standing rigging design for racing yachts.
Race Analysis & Data
Post-race data review, competitor benchmarking, tactical debrief support, onboard instrumentation, sensor integration, and performance trend reporting across a season or campaign.
Race Logistics
Campaign planning, freight and shipping coordination, entry management, on-site logistics, spare parts strategy, and crew travel.
Precision control under load
We design, specify, and commission hydraulic systems and PLC control platforms for sailing and motor yachts. From deck machinery and sail handling to integrated control logic, we deliver systems built for reliability and performance.
Hydraulic Systems Design
Hydraulic steering, sail handling, stabiliser systems, and deck machinery. Schematic design through to commissioning.
PLC Control Systems
Programmable logic controller design, panel building, sensor integration, and control system commissioning for onboard hydraulic and mechanical systems.
Connected and informed, wherever you are.
We specify, install, and commission navigation and communication systems for racing, cruising, and charter yachts. From coastal electronics to full offshore comms packages, we make sure the crew have the tools they need.
Navigation Systems
ECDIS, chart plotter, AIS, radar, and sonar integration. System selection, wiring design, and crew training.
Communication Systems
Satcom, SSB, VHF, and intercom systems. Offshore comms planning for racing and blue-water cruising.
Systems Integration
NMEA 2000 / SeaTalk networks, B&G, Garmin, Furuno, Raymarine integration, and full system commissioning.
Design. Optimise. Build.
Our naval architecture services span the full design lifecycle, from concept drawings for new vessels to structural upgrades and performance optimisation of existing hulls. We work alongside established design offices or operate independently for owners seeking a single point of accountability.
New Drawings
Lines plans, general arrangement, structural drawings, stability documentation, and class submission packages for new build yachts.
Upgrades & Modifications
Structural modifications, appendage redesign, keel changes, deck layout modifications, and post-refit drawing updates.
Performance Optimisation
Hydrostatic and hydrodynamic analysis, resistance prediction, appendage optimisation, and stability assessment for existing vessels.
The engineering beneath the waterline
From main engine installations to complex propulsion systems, our mechanical team manages specification, procurement oversight, installation supervision, and commissioning of all mechanical systems aboard motor and sailing yachts.
Engines & Generators
Main propulsion engine installation, generator sets, and exhaust system design for both new build and refit projects.
Watermakers
Reverse osmosis system selection, installation, plumbing, and commissioning for offshore and coastal use.
Stabilisers
Gyroscopic and fin stabiliser system specification, installation, and sea trial commissioning.
Propulsion Systems
Shaft lines, CPP and FPP propellers, sail drives, pod drives, bow and stern thrusters, and gearbox selection.
Intelligent integration
The modern superyacht is as much a technology platform as a vessel. We specify and oversee the integration of audio-visual, IT networking, and vessel automation systems to deliver seamless, reliable onboard experiences for owners and guests.
Audio Visual
Cinema rooms, multizone audio, outdoor entertainment, display systems, and sky lounge AV integration.
IT, Networking & Connectivity
Structured cabling, managed switching, Wi-Fi planning, VLAN segmentation, firewalls, remote monitoring, Starlink, VSAT, 4G/5G bonding, and crew/guest network separation.
Automation
Crestron, Lutron, Savant, and custom PLC-based systems for lighting, HVAC, blinds, access control, and bilge monitoring.
