I am a graduate in Naval Architecture and Maritime Engineering from the University of Cadiz, where I studied at the Centro Andaluz Superior de Estudios Marinos (Puerto Real, Cadiz). During my degree, I specialized in Recreational Craft, obtaining an honours degree, which allowed me to deepen my knowledge of the design, construction, and performance optimization of leisure boats. My passion for naval engineering, particularly in the field of yacht design, was reinforced during this period, motivating me to continue expanding my expertise.
Once I completed my studies, I joined the Colegio Oficial de Ingenieros Navales y Oceánicos, where I am currently a registered member with number 3524. Being part of this institution allows me to stay up to date with the latest developments in the sector, collaborate with other professionals, and contribute to the advancement of naval engineering.
After finishing my undergraduate studies, I decided to further my education by pursuing a Master’s Degree to obtain the qualification as a Higher Naval and Oceanic Engineer. This stage took place at the Polytechnic University of Madrid, at the prestigious School of Naval Engineering. During this period, I had the privilege of working on my thesis project, which focused on the development of a hydrogen-powered support boat for the America’s Cup. This project, supervised by Mr. Manuel Ruiz de Elvira, gave me valuable experience in the application of innovative and sustainable propulsion technologies, reinforcing my commitment to eco-friendly naval engineering solutions.
Currently, I am finalizing my PhD, specializing in the optimization of hydrofoil navigation. This research aims to improve the efficiency, stability, and performance of hydrofoil vessels, contributing to the advancement of high-speed marine transportation and the development of cutting-edge naval technology. This work not only aligns with my professional aspirations but also addresses the growing need for more sustainable and efficient maritime solutions.
It is an honour and a source of pride for me to dedicate myself to the naval profession, particularly in the nautical sports and recreational sector. My passion lies in yacht design, where I strive to blend aesthetic elegance with technical excellence, ensuring that each vessel not only meets the highest performance standards but also offers an unparalleled experience at sea. I am deeply committed to innovation and continuous learning, always seeking to contribute to the evolution of naval engineering through research, design, and technological development.
Guide
Where would you like to go?
I am a guide on this site, not Jorge and not an engineer. Anything technical, he answers himself.
Four things, all of them about how a vessel behaves in water:
Jorge reads every enquiry himself. You will get a much more useful first reply if you tell him:
There is no price list, and any figure I gave you here would be wrong.
It depends on the vessel, on how much geometry already exists and on how many conditions have to be simulated — a single resistance run and a full seakeeping study are not the same job.
What Jorge can do quickly is tell you whether your case is a two-week job or a two-month one. Send him the outline and he will come back with scope and a figure.
