Precise 3D Engineering
Our Design Methodology:
The design of a vessel at RoosterFish Boats begins in the AutoDesk Design Suite. Our hull designs are a unique combination of artistic expression and engineering analysis, combining to form a creative process that meets the aesthetic and performance requirements of our RoosterFish boats.
We transform the hull from an idea into a 3D computer model that is verified by precise and detailed analyses. Working in 3D, the designer has the freedom to create any type of hull shape from concept to completion while managing the desired strength, hydro-static, and aesthetic properties.
We focus on the build:
- We create hull components that precisely interlock for ease of building while maintaining dimensional and shape parameters
- We define waterlines, and other planar curves so the boat performs on the water
- We ensure precise fitment of hull sandwich panels to insure hydro-statics are maintained

(Under Development)
Once the hull design is complete, we work with industry leaders in composites engineering to develop the material application schedule. Once the schedule is complete, the assembly is run thru advanced modeling and simulations to determine whether the boat meets the our rigorous standards.
RoosterFish specs the strongest cores available for framing and skins. Once fiberglass is applied, these become very strong and will last a lifetime.
Engineered With Green Materials
Hulls: Recycled Laminated Foam Cores
Our hulls (scantlings) are a designed composite sandwich where structured layers of fiberglass fabrics form the outer layer of the foam core. Cores used are durable, impact resistant, lightweight, and can be sanded. PVC and other cores also have excellent thermal and noise insulating properties – the result is an exceptionally quiet ride!
Bulkheads, Stringers, and Transom: Ridged Composites Cores
All cross member bulkheads and stringers are CNC cut and precisely interlock. This offers exceptional strength, resistance to saltwater, fungus, and insects. We do not use any marine plywood due to its weight and propensity to rot over time.
Decks and Storage: Laminated Foam Cores
Decking, storage boxes, and optional center consoles use recycled foam cores dependent on strength and design requirements.
Flotation:
We utilize our RoosterFish TriFloat™ buoyancy system in all of our larger designs.
- 2 part expanding foam in the lower hull
- Composite cores that are inherently buoyant
- Foam under the gunwales
This trifecta of old world design with new age composites give our boats very positive buoyancy. In fact, the gunwale flotation system was originally designed decades ago to assist in righting capsized fishing vessels. Our TriFloat system allows our boats to meet or exceed ISO buoyancy standards and provide the highest levels of safety in the DIY boating market.
