about us

Engineering Confidence

At Bluewater Yacht Tech, we believe every marine system should inspire complete confidence—whether you’re navigating an ocean crossing or anchoring for a quiet sunset.

What began as a passion for precision engineering and life on the water has grown into a trusted name in custom marine electrical, navigation, and hybrid energy solutions. While we’re widely known for our catamaran expertise, we proudly work on all vessel types—from performance multihulls to luxury motor yachts.

What We Do Best

  • Electrical Refits & Power Systems

    From full lithium conversions to high-output alternators, custom distribution panels, and shore power upgrades, we deliver clean, safe, and optimized energy flow for your vessel.

  • Navigation & Electronics

    We integrate advanced chartplotters, radar, sonar, AIS, and onboard WiFi into intuitive, easy-to-use packages—using brands like Raymarine, Garmin, and B&G.

  • Hybrid Energy Solutions

    As certified Victron and Mastervolt integrators, we design systems that maximize renewable energy use and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

Founder & Lead Marine Systems Engineer

With decades of hands-on marine electrical and mechanical experience, Rafael has worked on everything from coastal cruisers to world-class catamarans. His career has taken him from dockside troubleshooting to complex, full-vessel refits that push the limits of marine technology.

As a certified Victron and Mastervolt integrator and an expert in Raymarine, Garmin, and B&G systems, Rafael’s approach blends deep technical knowledge with a sailor’s instinct for reliability at sea.

Having spent years both working on and living aboard vessels, he understands the demands of offshore passage-making, island-hopping, and luxury cruising. Every system he designs is built with the same precision and attention to detail he would demand for his own boat—because he knows that at sea, your systems aren’t just equipment… they’re your lifeline.
