KHSD
is well positioned to design custom multihulls
in a variety of construction materials, at a very
competitive price.

Cruising catamaran in design process.
Custom
Design services are available for all aspects
of multihull design.
Why
choose a new Design.
My
goal is to help you define your sailing needs,
then equip you with a boat design that meets those
needs better than anything else there is. I feel
that your multi must inspire confidence. A sense
that it will go where you want it to go, tack
when you want it to, claw to windward better than
you could imagine, survive whatever comes at you,
give a ride that seems to smooth out the waves,
and allow immediate control of everything on the
boat. Inside, everything can be just where it
should be. If the boat is to be US
Coast Guard-certified, I am experienced at
providing that service.
Twenty
years of active multihull design allows me to
confidently define the best solutions to real
problems. The most sophisticated three-dimensional
CADD system found in any multihull design office
lets me rapidly define the form of a project.
That virtual cat or tri can then have snapshots
emailed to the client for rapid approval. Marketing
people can have photorealistic renderings right
at the start, builders can have lines by email
or even nurb surfaces for CNC forming.
Clients
may take advantage of not only my drawings and
specifications, but all CADD and other computer
services, my extensive software tools, published
resources library, an aggressive research program,
and specialized consultants as needed. Clients
may also benefit from using my network of the
best builders, products suppliers and specialized
shops.

Also:
SEMI-CUSTOM WORK
Semi-custom
design is a good way to get the advantages of
custom design work at a lower cost than custom
work. A stock
design set or the parts of several stock sets
can be modified or combined to give you exactly
the boat that you want. The CADD system makes
this much more flexible and less costly than you
might expect.
The
best custom designs, giving builders and sailors
the exact boat they need, can be found here!
