There are those with desire and dedication to do more than just a "job".
What we do is our passion and the result of this focus is unique
experience with knowledge. That is what you will meet at IME Yachting,
together with
full service
in all aspects of yacht design, naval architecture and yacht building.
For the past (19) years we have been highly valued and
efficient team members as well as contributive individuals on many
prestigious yacht projects. Visiting these pages you are invited to
review our portfolio and consider those services which you necessitate:
-
Designers/naval architects to design
new yacht or to do yacht refit-renovation
studies.
-
Externally or internally "appointed"
designers/naval architects for your yacht design office or shipyard.
-
Project management, Owner's
representative, Production support,
Engineering liaison.
-
Development of 3D virtual reality
computer models for rendering or production needs.
-
To comply your project with EU
directive, provide stability report, drawings & other required
documentation.
We offer a complete
range of design services from the conceptual design of your yacht
through to detailed building plans and full production support. We
have a flawless track record of engineering strong, lightweight yachts
that are cost-effective to build, and above all, durable. We employ the
best computer tools available in designing the technical aspects of the
yacht, from laminate and structural analysis, to hull and appendage
design. We combine this experience with an ongoing appreciation
of current technologies to provide our clients with yachts that perform
and function to the highest standards, that last, and above all, that
are the eye-catching jewels that yachts are meant to be, the pride of
their owners. Every custom design we do reflects her owner’s unique,
personal view of life on the water.
The
process begins with the creation of a preliminary set of drawings in
which, through meetings, phone conversations, emails and multiple
revisions, we try to "home in" your project. We also begin the
all-important weight study at this point. The
weight study allows us to begin detailing gear and insures that we can
meet our design goals. Depending on the type of boat, we can do
performance predictions using the VPP or hull resistance, performance
predictions, range and fuel consumption estimates with different
powerplants.
At the end of the
preliminary process, the client will have from us a set of plans that
clearly define the boat and are sufficient to get bids from prospective
builders.
We
then build upon the preliminary drawings to produce the detailed build
plans for the yacht. Most of our design & engineering work is done "in
house". This allows us to keep the designs fully integrated in concept
and practice, also it allows us to keep design costs within our control.
We welcome the
opportunity to talk to anyone who may be planning a custom yacht or a
production series. Perhaps you are also a boatbuilder with need of
production or engineering support. We are qualified, flexible and
motivated team, just feel free to give us a call!
