Transforming boat and yacht projects with advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM) services using industry-leading 3D scanning technology.

When Do You Need BIM Services for Your Boat or Yacht?

There are several scenarios where BIM services become indispensable for boat owners, restoration specialists, and maritime engineers:

  • Complex Boat Restorations: When a boat requires an intricate restoration, accurate as-built documentation ensures a successful project by eliminating guesswork.
  • Interior Redesign and Optimization: If you are redesigning a yacht’s interior or upgrading mechanical systems, detailed BIM models help in visualizing and planning changes effectively.
  • Pre-Purchase Evaluations: Before investing in a used boat or yacht, a comprehensive 3D scan provides a clear understanding of the vessel’s current condition and any structural concerns.
  • Insurance Documentation: In the unfortunate event of damage, having precise as-built models is crucial for insurance claims and assessments.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Meeting industry-specific regulations often requires accurate documentation of a vessel’s systems and layout, which BIM services can provide.
  • Maintenance Planning: For ongoing maintenance and upgrades, BIM documentation makes it easy to plan and execute work with minimal disruption.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is BIM for boats, and why is it essential?

BIM (Building Information Modeling) creates precise digital representations of a boat’s physical and functional characteristics, critical for restorations, redesigns, and regulatory compliance.

How does 3D scanning compare to traditional measurement methods?

Our laser scanning technology captures data with far greater speed and accuracy than manual methods, reducing errors and saving both time and money.

Can BIM be used for interior yacht redesign?

Yes! BIM is ideal for visualizing interior layouts and optimizing space, ensuring that all elements fit perfectly and meet your design goals.

Is your 3D scanning expensive?

Not at all! Our efficient scanning process allows us to offer more affordable rates compared to competitors using less effective handheld devices, while still delivering high-precision results.

What kind of deliverables will I receive?

We provide point clouds, 3D BIM models, and 2D drawings, all compatible with popular design software for further use in your projects. Is BIM useful for routine maintenance planning?
Definitely. BIM models serve as a valuable resource for planning maintenance, helping ensure that all tasks are carried out efficiently and without unforeseen complications.
