I’m Sebastian Augusto Zarate, a structural design engineer specialized in high-performance composite yachts and foiling crafts. 

From my first America’s Cup with Artemis Racing in 2012, I’ve partnered with some of the world’s top teams to deliver racing yachts and foils that perform under the toughest conditions.

After years traveling and working for elite yachting campaigns, I've returned to Brest, France and I founded SAZ Design & Engineering. 

Our mission is simple:
Help ambitious teams turn bold ideas into precise, reliable structures — on time, on budget, and ready to win.

• Design & Engineering solutions

• Composite structures analysis

• Transferable expertise

• Collaborative, flexible support from concept to launch
