Production Designs

Our objectives when starting a new production boat design is to design a boat that meets all stipulated design parameters, complies with builder’s construction methods, performs as predicted and functions as well as expected.

It is advantageous to included all known options such as different keel and rig configurations, maximum hull length and propulsion system options early in the design stage.


Design Procedure

The following chart outlines a typical production boat design procedure.

• Preliminary Design
• Final Design
• Trials

The design specifications received from yards building production boats typically include, size, type, general arrangement, performance level, preferred construction method and materials and a description of the systems and equipment to be incorporated into the design.

Design Fees

The design fee schedule is determined by the design scope and agreed upon royalty arrangement.

We are always interested in working out proposals based on builder supplied design particulars.
