Thank you for visiting my web site.

I have been involved in the design and technology of yachts and powerboats since the early 1970s. This work is supported by both academic and professional qualifications including an honours degree in Ship Science and a masters degree in Manufacturing.  

For more than ten years I have offered my services as an independent Naval Architect, Yacht Designer and Consultant, providing technical assistance to a wide variety of clients, including entrepreneurs, owners, boatyards, designers and organisations.  

Whether it is advice on an individual technical matter, or the design of a complete yacht or powerboat, I aim to provide a thorough and cost-effective service to support the client’s aims and aspirations for the project.

In recent years a number of unique and interesting yachts, boats and special service craft have been designed for clients, ranging from the 1.5m (5ft) Starfish dinghies currently building in the UK, to the 30m (100ft) steel charter yacht “Spirit of the East” built in Turkey.

In addition to the marine design work, I offer an extensive range of specialist consultancy services including stability assessment, the production of vessel stability booklets for MCA Codes & other regulations, damage survivability analysis, RCD compliance, performance prediction for powered or sailing craft, rig design, sea trials and general condition surveys.

Most recreational and commercial craft are now required to comply with Regulations, Codes or Standards, often intended to ensure their stability and safety. I have assessed a large number of craft for compliance with stability and other aspects of current regulations and am well placed to advise on this.
