I am Somathilaka Hewainge, a versatile Marine Designer and Estimator with over 6 years of robust experience across the UAE and Sri Lanka. I specialize in conceptual layout, 2D/3D modeling, stability considerations, and detailed structural design of luxury houseboats, yachts, and pontoon vessels, using AutoCAD and nanoCAD. My hands-on expertise spans critical trades—including marine welding, GRP fabrication, electrical wiring, carpentry, masonry, and tiling—ensuring production-ready maritime concepts that are stable and functional. I excel at precision material take-offs, labor cost estimation, and on-site supervision. By blending engineering design with practical fabrication skills, I bridge the gap between concept and construction to deliver high-end marine projects on schedule and within budget.
