Naval architecture
A comprehensive service offering. Wether you need a brand new design or modifications to an existing boat or reverse engineering from a 3D scan or help with a problem boat, we can assist you from sketch to classification.
HULL DESIGN
V2Marine specialises in fast planing hull design. We use modern, specialist software coupled with old-school known-how to create efficient and cost effective hulls with predictable handling and exhilarating performance.
C.F.D.
Computational Fluid Dynamics. Here we drop your boat in a virtual towing tank to assess its characteristics. This is the most economical way to refine a new design and tune a hull for desired reactions to intended operating conditions. It is also a crucial step in identifying and correcting unstable handling behaviour.
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING
Strength by design. By running parallel design & engineering processes from the onset, we create boats that can endure many load cycles, thus providing extended service lifespans. We cover metals, composites and wood.
F.E.A.
Finite Element Analysis. Virtual stress testing of any component in any material. Quickly reveal weak points and overbuilt zones to ultimately generate a stronger, lighter and cheaper component.
PRODUCTION PLANS
Detailed shop floor drawings for manufacturing. They range from general arrangements to detailed lamination drawings to exploded assemblies with bill of materials and step by step assembly guides.
OPTIMUM PRODUCTION
We can assess your yard and offer process and flow refinement for any aspect of boat building, with the aim of reducing waste, reducing time and increasing quality. Applicable to custom one-off builds or mass production lines.
