Yachts Expert – Technical Advisory Division
We Structure the Technical Side of Yacht Projects
Our internal division supports shipyards, contractors and owners with engineering scopes, propulsion layouts and class-aligned documentation.
We work through a structured method and a network of trusted marine professionals built over 50 years — delivering clarity, traceability and approval-ready outputs across all phases.
Engineering, Layouts, Documentation
Structured Technical Scopes. Delivered with Precision.
We develop scope-specific technical outputs for yachts, catamarans and floating units — from layout and propulsion integration to lamination plans, regulatory documentation and class deliverables. Each output is aligned with shipyard constraints, flag requirements, and stakeholder-level clarity.
cognition Concept and Feasibility
Framing early-stage scope with layout logic, class orientation and regulatory constraints.
- • GA refinement and volume logic
- • Compliance pre-check (CE, LY3)
- • Spatial risk and coordination notes
engineering Propulsion and Systems
Layout and coordination of propulsion, technical spaces and integrated systems.
- • Shaft and engine layout
- • HVAC, power and fuel routing
- • Engine room 2D/3D coordination
layers Structural and Lamination
Structural plans and lamination logic tailored to production method and yard tooling.
- • Ply plans and scantling logic
- • Deck, hardtop and fly lamination
- • Tooling interface and geometry
waves Naval Architecture Input
Hydrostatics and hull balance logic supporting layout and system integration.
- • Hull line review and optimization
- • Trim strategy and hydrostatic report
- • Appendage placement and tuning
description Execution Drawings
Documentation packages for shipyard approval, subcontractor use and material planning.
- • GA update sets and spec sheets
- • Joinery, lighting, system layouts
- • Technical BoM and IFC documentation
gavel Regulatory and Class
Structured documentation for CE, LY3, MGN280 and class society interface.
- • Flag alignment (CE, LY3, MGN280)
- • Manuals and class deliverables
- • Traceability across project files
Who We Work With
We Work with Those Who Build, Manage and Approve
Our engineering division collaborates with project teams responsible for delivering certified, buildable marine scopes — from 24m to 100m+. We coordinate with yards, project offices and subcontractors across the GCC and internationally, integrating with internal protocols and supporting approvals through structured, documented outputs.
precision_manufacturing Shipyards and Builders
We work alongside production and engineering departments, providing deliverables aligned with yard flow and build stages — from GA sets and system layouts to lamination and compliance files.
groups Client Teams and Owner Reps
We support private clients and technical offices with layout validation, propulsion integration and classification logic — acting as a structured extension of their internal resources.
partner_exchange Contractors and Consultants
We assist technical subcontractors with documentation, technical drawings and spec packages that integrate seamlessly with project coordination and class approval pathways.
Each stakeholder operates differently. Our role is to adapt, integrate, and deliver clarity across the chain.
Regulations, Flag, Class
Compliance and Classification, Structured from the Start
We operate with full awareness of classification requirements and flag rules — translating them into traceable, production-aligned documentation. From CE (2013/53/EU), LY3 and MGN280 to SOLAS and custom flag frameworks, we develop documentation packages that support early-stage feasibility, system approvals and yard coordination.
Our experience includes coordination with RINA, DNV, Bureau Veritas, Lloyd’s Register and flag authorities across the GCC and Europe — ensuring that engineering logic and regulatory deliverables are integrated, not separated.
FAQ – Technical Scopes
Frequently Asked Questions
Key topics discussed with shipyards, consultants and project managers during scope development and delivery.
At what stage should we involve your team?
Preferably from early concept or GA layout validation. This allows class and engineering logic to align from the beginning — reducing late-phase rework.
Do you represent owners, yards, or both?
We act in the interest of the appointing party, adapting to their scope and internal logic — whether we integrate with a shipyard, contractor, or client office.
What deliverables do you typically provide?
GA and system layouts, lamination plans, class documentation, engine room coordination, execution drawings, specs, and interface files — all structured for production and approval.
Can you support floating or non-standard projects?
Yes. We have experience in technical validation and documentation for catamarans, floating units, tenders, and custom modular builds — including CE/flag compliance.
Do you liaise with class societies?
Yes. We coordinate with RINA, DNV, BV, Lloyd’s and others, ensuring traceable documentation and aligning with their approval logic from day one.
Do you replace in-house engineering?
No — we integrate. Our role is to extend technical capacity, bring structured logic, and reduce gaps between systems, documents and project phases.
