Upgrading Vessel Category

As a company specializing in maritime services, we offer comprehensive solutions for boat owners looking to increase the carrying capacity of their vessels by transitioning from private pleasure boats to professional ones. Our expertise in naval architecture, marine engineering, and regulatory compliance enables us to guide our clients through the process seamlessly.

Here’s how we can assist:

We begin by conducting a thorough assessment of the existing vessel to determine its current capacity, structural integrity, and compliance with relevant regulations. This assessment helps us identify the necessary modifications required to transition the boat to a professional vessel.

Our team of naval architects and marine engineers works closely with clients to develop customized studies and plans tailored to their specific requirements. This may include redesigning the interior layout, optimizing storage spaces, and incorporating additional safety features to accommodate the increased carrying capacity.

We ensure that all design modifications adhere to the regulatory requirements set forth by maritime authorities governing the classification and certification of professional vessels. Our thorough understanding of these regulations allows us to navigate the compliance process efficiently and effectively.

Our experienced team oversees the implementation of structural modifications necessary to increase the carrying capacity of the boat. This may involve hull extensions, reinforcement of the superstructure, installation of additional bulkheads, or other structural enhancements as determined by the design plans.

We conduct rigorous safety and stability analyses to assess the impact of the modifications on the vessel’s overall performance. This includes stability assessments, inclining experiments, and other tests to ensure that the boat meets or exceeds safety standards for professional operation.

Once the modifications are complete, we assist clients in obtaining the necessary certification and documentation to officially classify the boat as a professional vessel. This may involve obtaining a new classification certificate, updating registration documents, and securing relevant permits for commercial operation.

We provide training and support to boat owners and crew members to ensure they are familiar with the operation and maintenance of the modified vessel. This includes training on safety procedures, emergency protocols, and equipment usage to promote safe and efficient operations.

By entrusting us with the preparation of studies and plans to increase the carrying capacity of their boats, clients can rest assured that they are receiving expert guidance and support every step of the way. Our goal is to deliver solutions that enhance the versatility, profitability, and safety of their vessels in compliance with industry regulations.
