HIGH-PERFORMANCE NAVAL ARCHITECTURE & HYDROFOIL ENGINEERING


Musca Marine Design is a New Zealand–based naval architecture and hydrodynamic R&D studio dedicated to advancing high-performance vessel technology.
Founded by Giuseppe Musca, Musca Marine Design develops integrated hydrodynamic systems for high-performance commercial and recreational vessels, with particular expertise in the design and engineering of foil-assisted and fully foiling Boat and ships for low, medium and high-speed applications.
We believe exceptional vessel performance is achieved by engineering the interaction between the hull, hydrofoil system, appendages, driveline, propulsion system and vessel dynamics as one optimised solution, with efficiency at the core of every design decision.
Our work combines first-principles engineering, advanced hydrostatic and hydrodynamic analysis, high-fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), CAD modelling and real-world validation to transform innovative concepts into practical, high-performance vessels.
Every project is driven by a clear objective: reducing resistance, improving propulsive efficiency, enhancing dynamic stability and optimising performance throughout the vessel's operating envelope.
Whether developing a next-generation concept, solving complex hydrodynamic challenges or enhancing the performance of an existing vessel, Musca Marine Design transforms research, engineering and practical experience into competitive advantage, delivering vessels that are faster, more efficient and built to perform.
