The best your vessel can be!
By applying decades of expertise and experience, we look at your boat, ship or yacht’s design
from every angle to help you enhance its performance in every way possible.
From hull form to energy-saving appendages, from shipyard construction methods to systems installation.
Performance
You’re not going to entrust the design of your or your client’s boat, ship or yacht to just any naval architect. There are simply too many variables at stake: comfort, efficiency, sustainability, aesthetics …
This is where almost thirty years of continuous dedication to research & development and innovation in naval architecture, hydrodynamics and design management has paid off.
Innovation
We’re engineers. If you’re an engineer yourself, or you know an engineer, it’ll be no surprise to you to hear we’re driven by an insatiable curiosity – continually researching, developing, experimenting. In fact, we spend over 20% of our time and resources on in-house research & development projects.
Design Management
It’s vital to look at the entire project and process when undertaking something as complex as building a boat, ship or yacht.
At Van Oossanen, we look further ahead than just the early design and engineering phases – we examine all your requirements and your project as a whole, from start to finish.
Van Oossanen Academy
We’ve been studying and researching virtually every aspect of vessel performance for over forty years now. In that time, we’ve accumulated a wealth of expertise relating to fluid dynamics and naval architecture.
And it’s not something we’re looking to keep to ourselves, which is why we set up the Van Oossanen Academy as a forum for sharing and disseminating this knowledge.
Recent projects
Just a few of our projects – either still under construction or out on the water!
