The revolutionary designs and marine products from Harley Shipbuilding Corporation (and its sister companies) afford the optimum in design capabilities and deliver on the promised potentials Surface Effect designers have been trying to achieve for so long! There are many surface effect and similar designs that have come out and/or been marketed over the last two decades. All have excellent potentials, yet many drawbacks and limitations. The following listing sites just some of the many benefits of HSBC's designs and highlights many of the major issues and problems of the past that HSBC has solved and/or removed as problems with SES designs. As you read over these items, keep in mind, Harley designs have been extensively tested and proven! A working model is running and has been proving these claims for over three years! Interested parties are welcome to contact us to schedule a demonstration to see for themselves. Please refer also to the VIDEOS page of this site for a copy of our video of run tests of our demo, and other items to " Custom mold and design capabilities allow production of ships for almost any custom need and size. Transport ships, Super high speed Military ships and Patrol boats, Research Vessels, Medium and Large Yachts and more! Special design capabilities allow for wider and larger platforms. As well, hulls in Kevlar are exceedingly strong and ultra light! Hulls can be produced at varying weights to result in potentially near unbreakable designs! COMPANY In business for over 30 years ocean cruisers, Harley Shipbuilding Corporation and its affiliated companies have a record of innovation and high function design, with the highest level of quality and care. Howard Harley, the President/CEO of HSBC is a brilliant marine designer and inventor, with over 30 years experience and myriad patents to his credit. His view of SES ship technology has been like many others in the industry; it looks great, but it has been long on promise and short on delivery with seemingly endless problems and hidden difficulties continually encountered by most all the designs to come out to date. The negatives have often seemed to out weigh or at least greatly diminish the expected benefits, and we still await the real solution to take advantage of Surface Effect. As many others, Howard knew SE would work and only waited for the right design to truly make a high speed, high function and low operation and maintenance cost SE Ship a reality. Multiple designs of surface effect ships have come and gone, and more than a few have been built, with varying levels of effective return on the potentials of SE. However, the many problems, high maintenance and down time, and minimal returns encountered to date have not seemed to offer any reasonable ROIs or warranted much in the way of production of ships or large vessels. Simply, until now, no commercially viable and financially effective SES ships existed offering near the "leap" in capability, function and dependability SE would seem to promise. Everyone has been largely disappointed, even though some great new innovations and technologies have come from the efforts. Still, true SES potentials, we and many in the industry believe, have eluded us all, but we all keep trying. Harley's proprietary new manufacturing process allows up to 500% production increases of hulls & superstructures for HSB SES licensed ship and yacht builders!
