With the goal of partecipating to the SuMoth Challenge, a new boat is presented every two years. New designs and eco-sustainable ideas compete with the ideas of students coming from all over the world.
To design, build and test our models we need the financial, technical and instrumental help of specialists coming from the industry.
Even if our boats have to be built in dedicated industrial laboratories, our collaboration with RAMS Lab allows us to make minor maintenance and updates to the structures.
