Ellis Engineered

Ellis Engineered Engineered Composite Solutions Ellis Engineered specializes in the design and engineering of advanced composite structures.

We deliver engineered composite solutions that exceed client expectations, from small parts to large structures. Our client base is global and location is not a barrier. Ellis Engineered is an independent consultancy. We are not affiliated with any materials supplier and can therefore provide our clients with the most suitable materials for their project.

Ellis Engineered uses Finite Element Analysis to predict composite strains and deflections before a part is ever built. Recently we analysed a skiff dinghy structure using the client’s specified laminate schedule. The model predicted 2.1 mm of bending deflection. The independent survey measurement recorded 1.9 mm.

If your next composite structure relies on assumed laminates, you are accepting unknown performance. Ellis Engineered provides quantified behaviour before manufacture, so design decisions are based on evidence, not assumption.

Great to spend time at Sydney City Marine this week visiting SHK Scallywag 100.

Since 2014, Ellis Engineered has provided engineering support to Scallywag and the team led by David Witt.

It’s always valuable to step aboard in person and see how the platform has evolved, particularly the modifications we’ve contributed to, including the 5.2m bowsprit that we designed and engineered.

Great to be back out on the water yesterday in our 16ft skiff.
This season we’re welcoming two new crew members, Meg on the helm and Ethan up front. Ellis Engineered is privileged to support these two youth sailors as they step into the 16ft skiff class and we’re excited for the season ahead at Belmont 16ft Sailing Club .

🏆 Congratulations to Bryon Ehrhart and the Lucky crew on taking Line Honours and the prestigious Barn Door Trophy in the 2025 Transpac!

Ellis Engineered is proud to have contributed to this achievement with our design, engineering, and manufacture of a pair of 5-metre tapered reaching struts. The striking carbon tubes extending from each side of the yacht, visible in the photo below.

Lucky completed the legendary course from Los Angeles to Honolulu in 5 days, 21 hours, and 23 minutes, surfing the Pacific swells at speeds of up to 24 knots as she stormed across the finish line.

Congratulations to Black Jack Yachting on taking Line Honours and setting a new speed record in the Gotland Runt !

Ellis Engineered provided the Black Jack Team with composite engineering services at the start of 2025 for new jib tack points in the bow, some of which are subjected to loads of 16 tonnes!

Congratulations to on claiming Line Honours victory in the 2025 Loro Piana Giraglia Race!
In a thrilling finish off Genoa, SHK Scallywag capitalised on her new 5.2m bowsprit, designed and engineered by , to fly a powerful Code '0' and hold off the formidable new maxi, Magic Carpet E, in light and shifting conditions.

We're proud to have contributed to this outstanding performance. Well done to the entire Scallywag team!
