Patented hull technology
for a better ride

The Petestep® spray deflectors
Our patented technology with the unique combination of significantly higher comfort combined with the best planing efficiency in the industry. You can’t get a better ride!
How does it work?

Spray water makes a difference
Our patented technology utilizes the otherwise wasted spray water, and creates a significant increase in efficiency and comfort

Conventional spray rails
Spray rails are noisy and make the boat slam harder in waves. By pushing spray water to the sides of the boat, spray rails also waste hydrodynamic energy, resulting in a significantly higher fuel consumption than necessary.

Petestep® deflectors
Petestep deflectors redirect the otherwise wasted spray water down and aft, consequently providing a lift and forward thrust force on the boat. The combined result is a much lower energy need than other V-bottom hulls.

Deflector 600
The Deflector 600 project will serve to prove the benefits of Petestep technology in offshore racing.
How can we help

Hull development
For all boat models, we design the Petestep® hull to suit this particular model’s intended use and characteristics, along with its specific engine options. This ensures that the boat will always run with great comfort combined with maximum efficiency.

Performance estimates
Most projects start in a feasibility stage, where Petestep supplies predictions of the performance and powering requirements. This also occasionally includes a comparison to a conventional hull, in order to illustrate the performance differences

Advanced analysis
We can handle most advanced analyses on planing hulls, including turning and wave simulations. Also how propulsion systems such as water jet and surface drives affect the performance and seakeeping.
