What They Say About Us
“We engaged Cape Horn Engineering to improve the keel of our yacht through the use of CFD simulations for different configurations, and a wide range of race conditions. Their state-of-the-art flow analysis gave us the answers we needed to develop the design in a direction we are very pleased with, now our keel is well optimised for best performance and the rating system.”
Cossutti Yacht Design
“We have been impressed by the quality and accuracy of the information supplied by Cape Horn Engineering, the whole process has been quick and efficient”
Dixon Yacht Design
“From the very start of the design process for the new Beneteau First 53 I was decided to involve Rodrigo Azcueta and his company, I’ve known Rodrigo for many years and consider him a true expert in the field of CFD and hydrodynamics”
Biscontini Yacht Design
“We are an Australian based boat designer and builder. We have been building boats for well over 100 years. Tank testing is part of almost every new design of ours. A client requested if we can investigate CFD for a new design which we were planning on tank testing. We had our reservations using CFD, however after having dealt with Dr.-Ing. Rodrigo Azcueta of Cape Horn, we would not hesitate to use CFD for all future projects. Possibly replacing the need to tank test.
From first contact, Cape Horn have been extremely professional and proficient. The manor in which they have interpreted our requests and goals has been exemplary. The whole process was seamless and the turn around time was beyond expectation. The quality and reporting of the results was very impressive with the graphical nature also providing excellent marketing benefits.
I would not hesitate to recommend Cape Horn for marine CFD analysis and we are excited to extend our relationship with them and the technology.”
