Design
Woody Marine Fabrication has a design service aspect to the business. Stephen Plummer is not only the director of WMF but is also a qualified Naval Architect allowing the clients to get custom designed boats drawn up and built all in the one location. We feel that this ability to offer this service is very special and provides a personal touch with every boat. Stephen graduated from the Australian Maritime College with 1st Class Honors and has 15 years experience in the Maritime field. He has been involved in projects ranging from 2.5m & 5.5m Plate Alloy Boats to 30m Luxury Motor Yachts and a 70m landing Barge.

Concept
From the clients’ concept in initial discussions, we draw computer generated Cad plans for the basis of discussions. We have the ability to design either Commercial or Pleasure boats and to various classification society rules.

Hull Design
The boats hull design is then generated in 3D in Maxsurf, a specific hull program that calculates critical hull parameters in order to design & deliver a boat that both performs and floats in the correct manner. We have the ability to provide the client with 3D images of the hull in various orientations, giving the client a visual picture of how their boat will look before construction.

Computer Cutting
We can generate computer cutting files that our Aluminium supplier can use with their routing equipment, providing an accurate, efficient and cost effective means of building a boat. This feature of the design office ensures the ability to build a boat of the highest quality and accuracy.

Project Management
BUILDING - ENGINEERING - ELECTRICAL - FITOUT - SEA TRIALS - COMMISSIONING

With years of experience in the boating industry, we can build the boats as well as coordinating all the other trades required to get the boat from the drawing board to the water. We know various sub-contractors from marine electricians to marine engineers to carpenters to hydraulic engineers to upholsterers and painters.

Once the boat is complete in the workshop, it is then sea trialed to ensure that all the systems work, from anchor winches to toilets to main engines and steering. The vessel is then commissioned and ready to be deliver to the client.

Services Available
DESIGN – New Designs or Modification of existing boats. Extensions and refits.
STABILITY – We can conduct inclining experiments and prepare stability books for Survey requirements.
COSTINGS –Prepare cost estimates for the building of the boats.

If you need a boat designed, built or modified, then we have a facility that can provide you all your needs in the one location.
