  • In this series of videos, I´ll show you the building process of our dream boat. It will be the perfect symbiosis of a water sports boat for a daytrip with friends and a place to stay for a few nights with a comfy bed. My bride and I love to stay on the water for a couple of days and with this boat we have everything we need for that. She gave me all her requirements and I made a design out of it.
    The hull is 6.9 m long and 2.5 m wide, all made of marine grade aluminium, fully welded. Everything is planned, constructed and build by myself.
    This will be a series of short videos documenting the building process, mostly time laps.
    Enjoy!

    Nice work, cant wait to se it completed! Have you designed it your self or bought the plans? Im planing to bouild a simulare boat myself, but can nothing about boat design😅

      Me too, dude, me too.
      I designed it completely myself. I also did know nothing when I first started, but you have to start somewhere. Getting used to CAD probably took the longest. Everything gets manageble when divided into small enough steps. Start small. 😉

      @@alumawave what kind of CAD are you using? I use Fusion for everything, but i cant find a good way to design a plate boat..

      I use SolidWorks, but the functionality should be the same in this regard. I have not found a good tutorial for boats, but there are enough tutotials for other odd shapes. Projected lines or 3D splines and patches are your friends.

      @@alumawave Awesome work! I'm a design engineer at a yacht builder. Our favorite CAD software for hull design is Rhino 3D. It handles surface modeling better than solidworks or autodesk inventor / fusion 360. It has a learning curve because it a different approach to modeling because there's no history tree / timeline. I'd relate it to sketchup but 1000 times more capable. Plus Rhino is a one time purchase no annoying subscriptions lol.
      Keep up the great work, I'm excited to see how this comes together!

      Thank you, I appreciate your input. Jep, surface handling in SW is quite delicate. I grew up with it, so I got used to it. But I will definitely look into Rhino, 90 days for the free trial is also nice to get a feeing.
