Etamax specialises in providing engineering support and design services for innovative and unique boat structures. All design done by etamax is based on engineering analysis, rather than scantlings or other empirical methods.   This means that unconventional and innovative boat structures can be designed with a high level of confidence in their ultimate success and significant weight and cost savings can often be achieved.
