Catamaran

Roughing in the forward areas. At this point, all the main structures are built.

You be launching her soon matey!
Bryan, what's that forward boom? Don't think I've ever seen one on any boat.

Lines off form checking.

Wow check out the architects website! Some beautiful designs!

Thanks Joe!
That's for a jib sail. Sometimes the jib sail is connected to the main mast and sometimes it's not. And sometimes it's connected to the mainsail boom and sometimes it's not. This design, from the plans, shows it connected to both. (I had to look this up)
-
yeah I think this is the same design as yours and it has that boom out front.

Yep. Shuttleworth seems to be a name associated with very nice boats. I did not know this when I picked it. It just looked nice and the plans were available for free.
-
where do you get the plans? Got a link?

https://www.nauticexpo.com/prod/pedigree-cats/product-20671-478489.htmlThat's it exactly. The Aero.
Being my first boat, I'm taking some, uh, liberties with the design.

Google search, plans for Shuttleworth Aero.
What you see in my posts are all I could find. Each image had to be scaled when imported.

More detailing and proportion change of some objects. And example was the radar bridge was too tall.
Hull sections committed and exploded to join all pieces in order to create waterline paint stripe.
Fore-deck and helm details next and rigging for very last.

Things are really coming together Bryan. Excellent work
-
Thanks tuna!
Stern steps completed. Non-slip pads are the black rectangles.
Vector Push/Pull to move the stern bulkhead forward and then stairs made with triangles on center-line and the regular Push/Pull to extrude outward. Then some fiddling with the outboard edges to get them flush to inner hull. Then Bevel tool on the step edges. Not perfect geometry, but it will pass a close up.
-
Coming along nicely, she looks great.
-
We've definitely moved beyond my modeling ability..haha.. great work.
-
Thanks marked001!
I could not have done this without Curviloft, Tools On Surface, Pipe Along Path and Joint Push/Pull. I also had all that practice with the Nadesico. I realized is was just a space catamaran.

Several updates:
Helm finished. Instruments from the 3D Warehouse.
Added aft berths portals. Began mast rigging. Re-proportioned fore deck/net cross beam. Made the top hatches thinner. Will do hull portals and beach ladder next. Fore deck webbing will be last. I expect it will make the model "heavy" so I'm leaving it to last.
-
Moving right along ! Most excellent

Thanks tuna!
