Pratt Naval Architecture Director James Pratt BEng(Hons) CEng MRINA MYDSA studied Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering at University College London. His final year project "Hydrofoils for a Class Racing DInghy" was a prize winner at the BICC Design Council Engineering Awards. James worked initially with the UK's largest private Marine Consultant firm, BMT based at their ship model testing facility.
Following successful projects working with well-respected UK inland builders, Colecraft Boats, Colecraft approached Pratt Naval Architecture to design a new Dutch Style Barge in steel. Our design can be built at a range of lengths from approximately 18 to 21 m with equipment and interior to suit the owner's specific requirements.
Following a previous successful project partnership working on the design of multiple passenger vessels for the 2012 London Olympics, well-known UK builder Colecraft returned to Pratt Naval Architecture for the design of a new passenger vessel to their client, Canal and River Tours of Stratford upon Avon.
Pratt Naval Architecture was approached to design a vessel capable of transporting children including those disabled and using wheelchairs to parts of the UK inland waterway network not otherwise accessible to engage with nature and the environment. The clients specified that the project was to be based on an existing traditional vessel to preserve part of the UK's marine heritage.
Pratt Naval Architecture can guide owners, operators and builders through the mass of present day regulations and standards including MCA, Load Line, ISO and Classification Society rules. We have participated in working groups including those for Inland Passenger vessels and Amphibious Passenger Vehicles.
