The Client Comes First
Tailoring Our Approach to Suit the Client
At BYD we understand varying client needs for different projects. We aim to develop engineering solutions that are safe and practically sound. Always with the goal of surpassing the requirements and meeting the brief. We focus on providing the owner and builder with a service with superior project support on the technical side and work closely with all involved on the design. We work with a multitude of different clients within the marine industry globally, tailoring the way in which we provide support to suit the needs of the client.
Superyachts & Private Owners
From Initial Concept to Sea Trials
When an owner wants to purchase a custom yacht or refit an existing yacht to their specific requirements. We can offer the support from the initial concept stage right through to the sea trials. Our job is to take the requirements of the client and develop and engineer these for the shipyard to be able to make them reality.
Once the conceptual design phase is completed, a specification and technical package is developed for shipyards to provide competitive pricing on. A detailed design package will be created to build or refit the yacht with. After the build/ refit we stay with the project through the sea trials to ensure the vessel can perform and operate as intended.
Pleasure Yacht Builders
Complete Design to Engineering Support
The luxury yacht market comes in many different shapes and sizes. We work with numerous boat builders for both power and sail to help define and grow brands and yacht lines. Providing a varying level of services and support depending on the requirements of the manufacturing operation. From complete design to providing engineering support for certain aspects or 2D and 3D design.
We work with full production or semi custom arrangements and utilise our vast experience to help productionise designs without compromising on aesthetic and quality to ensure we are providing a successful design that is efficient to build.
