I made the 3D models available for free. The boat was designed by Bruce Potter Bingham sadly passed away recently. This boat is made of ferrocement, a technique now obsolete, but I hope it will be of interest considering the unique characteristics of this small boat, capable of crossing oceans...

Hi All, I use NAPA for stability assessment of client vessels and I am frequently provided a GHS geometry file which I use to define the hull and tanks in NAPA. Import the geometry file into Rhino as mesh, convert all meshes to nurbs, and export each layer to an individual IGES file. This works...

Hello, newbie here, I'm currently designing boats in solid works and trying to export via IGES but I frequently have significant surface issues that make it almost impossible to fix in the modeler. I think I'm like most people when I say I want to spend as little time in the modeler as possible...

Hi, it's been a few days since I figured out how to use gCAD3D, an opensource CAD that allows you to create NUBRS surfaces by drawing or with the manual editor, I did some tests and I think it can be an alternative to create simple hulls, because it allows you to have an excellent precision in...
