The yard
Every hull starts as a flat plate.
We cut 5083 sheet on our own plasma table, weld it on a jig built for that model, and leak-test every compartment before the boat leaves the shed. There is no mould to amortise, which is why a custom layout costs you a drawing rather than a new tooling bill.
Thirty-two people work across design, welding, fit-out and quality control in a 2,000 m虏 yard in Changzhou. Everything from the first sketch to the sea trial happens under one roof.

The journal
Notes from the yard
Corrosion is a maintenance problem, not a material problem
The aluminium hulls that fail early almost never fail because of the alloy. They fail because of a stainless bolt, a wet locker, or a bilge that nobody looked inside for two years.
Read the pieceHow to choose an outboard: four-stroke, two-stroke, or neither
Power is the last decision, not the first. Start with weight, usage and the cost of running the engine for ten years — then decide how many cylinders you need.
Read the pieceDeadrise, chine and beam: how hull shape decides how a boat behaves
Three numbers explain most of the difference between a boat that pounds in a chop and one that runs through it. None of them are horsepower.

Tell us what the boat has to do.
Payload, draft, crew, water depth at your slip, and the sea state you work in. A one-page brief is enough to price a hull 鈥?we will come back with a layout, a specification and a delivery date.
