Description of the project
We start with 3D sketches, or simply an idea that takes on a specific shape through the exchange of ideas with our clients. Normally, we work on the need to add specific ballast, which we take as our starting point to find a location and establish the shapes. Once the shapes have been defined, the way the part fits the boat needs to be established, so the openings or spaces reserved for the part need to be defined.
Our company is able to offer complex parts machined with great precision using CNC machinery; however, we do offer more economical solutions if possible.
Keel Project for Summerwine Boats
- Client: Summerwine Boats (UK)
- Description: 430-kg keel for a classic Buzzard Bay 15 designed by Nathanial Herreshoff. The client's (2D) plans were used to create the 3D image to be able to make the Porex model and mould it in sand. We included pipes in the model to act as a guide for the through-holes to fit the part to the hull. .
