About Us
Triton’s Philosophy
At Triton we emphasize a client-centric approach, working closely with shipowners, operators, and builders to ensure that the final product meets or exceeds expectations. We leverage advanced design tools and technologies, such as 3D modelling and simulation, to create vessels that are both innovative and practical.
About the Team
Triton employs two Naval Architects, namely the partners,
Christo Smit, BSc Eng (Marine) Stellenbosch, MSc (Nav Arch) UCL, London
Barry Kingwill, B Eng (Mech) Stellenbosch, MSc Eng (Marine/Nav Arch) Stellenbosch & UCT
And mechanical engineers, mechanical technicians, marine and structural draftsmen, 3D modelling technicians and administrative and financial support staff.
Triton also regularly takes on engineering / naval architectural student interns, particularly from foreign universities, for example a number have come from Germany, Holland, USA, France etc, with their longer intern periods (4 to 6 months), which are often preferred over the shorter requirements (3 to 4 weeks) of the local universities.
