WoW! Please read again from Junk Rig to Elia on this Blog.
I am not pretending that the source started with the small 10M. aluminum cruising boat TYD#153, but I am glad that the Trend is there and sponsored by one of the best Shipyard in the world.
- As you know by now, most of my work is about custom boat designs. When I say most, it is about all of them. See an earlier Blog: Custom Yacht Design.
- What is the best way to start a custom boat design?
- Being someone involved at 98% with individuals boats, there is pattern that one must follow.
- The project has to be fun because, it is pretty expensive. So, you may as well enjoy the process for the price.
- But, it has to start from the client with a realistic approach about cost, timing and have some firm ideas about the boat itself.
- Fortunately the clientele for customs boats is in general well informed and, very likely had many yachts beforehand.
- From my side, before embarking on a new project, I definitely communicate the process by engaging the customer to consider something I have done before among the many designs in his category for a possible match. And maybe with some modifications to lower cost of design and engineering.
