Design aluminium shallow water

Hello everyone and thank you for welcoming me to the forum.
My name is Gian and I'm from North Italy.
I'm owner of a little company (13 workers) specialized in manufacturing stainless steel and aluminum.
Our skills are TIG welding, CNC bending, drawing in 3D and waterjet cutting; but we don't know how to make the keel of a shallow boat for river!

For a long time I want a boat like the SJX, but in Italy and Europe are not imported or produced; I'm sure you know this USA baots:

We want install this jet (One or two):

http://www.castoldijet.com.au/waterj/jet03.html with a Mercedes diesel about 80 cv power.

Boat has to be able to navigate in rivers similar to :

Can you help me for design or give me an email adress of a professional designer specialised in shallow water with pump drive?


Sorry for precarious English and thanks to all!

Gian

Welcome Gian

Before getting into too much detail, may I suggest you contact Daiquiri, as he is local to you. What you're propsing requires more thought and planning, being local he can advise better than endless slow reply emails.

Click on his profile..and click..."send private message". This sends him a message for this website, but forwards the message to his private email account.

Good luck
