Four Ways to Work With Us

O

OEM

Your drawings and specifications, our production line. You own the design IP end to end.

D

ODM

We develop the boat from your brief — market concept, performance targets or platform adaptation — you approve before production.

P

Private Label

Your brand, graphics and packaging on a proven, validated hull with no structural changes.

F

Commercial Fleet

Rental, resort, rescue and dealer programs configured for duty cycle, serviceability and spare-parts supply.

The more complete your brief, the fewer quotation rounds. Prepare these seven items:

  • Target market — country or region of sale; this sets certification scope (EU Recreational Craft Directive 2013/53/EU design categories C/D, ISO 6185, local registrations).
  • Boat type — RIB tender, air-deck dinghy, rescue/workboat, rental fleet model, or a custom concept.
  • Size — target length and beam, passenger capacity, and tube diameter if known.
  • Quantity — first-order estimate and 12-month projection, so we recommend the right MOQ tier.
  • Certification needs — CE category, third-party inspections (SGS/TÜV/BV/Intertek), or market-specific documentation.
  • Branding — logo placement, hull graphics, console branding, packaging and manuals.
  • Timeline — required sample date and launch window, including any trade-show deadline.

FAQ

Starting a Project — Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need final drawings before contacting you?+

No. A clear description of boat type, size, quantity and market is enough for a first engineering review and budget quotation. Drawings can be developed together in ODM mode or supplied later in OEM mode.

Every brief receives an engineer-reviewed reply within one business day, followed by an itemized quotation typically within three business days once configuration is clear.

Yes. We sign NDAs before receiving any proprietary drawings, artwork or specifications, and all project files are stored under access-controlled, audit-traceable systems.

In OEM mode, you do — fully. In ODM mode, platform IP adapted from your brief is settled by agreement before work starts. In private-label mode, the platform stays ours while all brand assets stay yours.
