Naval engineers are responsible for the design, planning, projection and construction of all water craft, including boats, oil platforms and even offshore wind farms. Naval engineering covers such functions as the development of creative projects for sea craft and floating material, the technical development of the design and construction phases and the management of production centres (boat yards). Furthermore, this field of activity covers the tasks of maintenance and repair.
Nowadays, naval engineers are characterised by their high degree of versatility, with their knowledge extending to such fields as the generation and transportation of electrical energy, the manufacture and installation of naval motors and dynamic metallic structures, etc.
Up until the 18th-century, such engineers were known as "constructors" in Spain. As of 1770, they became known as "marine -or hydraulic- engineers", before finally being recognised by the term "naval engineers".
Famous naval engineers include Thomas Andrews, designer of RMS Titanic and RMS Olympic, and William Francis Gibbs, responsible for the design of such vessels as SS America, SS Leviathan and SS United States. Mention must also be made of Francisco Gautier, who succeeded Jorge Juan as the engineer responsible for the construction of vessels for the Spain's Royal Armada, and Romero Landa, one of the greatest naval engineers of his time.

Nueva página web de AITAMAR GROUP



Después de una ausencia más prolongada de lo previsto inicialmente, debida al deseo de ofrecerles una web corporativa de las empresas que componen AITAMAR GROUP, por fin salimos de nuevo a ocupar este espacio virtual desde el que les ofrecemos toda la información relativa a AITAMAR, TEKNAMAR y AITAMAR YACHTS, así como a cualquier asunto relativo a la náutica y a las embarcaciones.


Desde él les ofrecemos nuestros servicios de siempre, a los que incorporamos como novedad el de "Gestiones on-line", en el que podrán Vdes., con su simple registro, consultar legislación, descargar impresos y formularios, o realizarnos su consulta particular referida a la embarcación que ya posea, o a la que tenga en perspectiva.


Con todo ello, esperamos que nos dispensen la grata acogida de siempre, al tiempo que nos significamos abiertos a sus sugerencias, recomendaciones y comentarios desde el apartado "Contactar". Su preciada colaboración nos ayuda a trabajar más y mejor para Vdes.


Cordialmente,
