:: Responsible for the design and optimization of the canoe hull. Each member designs their own hull using AutoCAD, Excel, and DelftShip and then, gets to 3D print their own canoe to complete physical testing. Physical tests such parameters as stability, maneuverability and speed. These results are utilized alongside Delftship modelling in order to select the final design.
