Hello,

My name is Arslan and I am apsolutely and unfamiliar to boatbuilding and design. In the same time I have been sailing for the past few years and have developed a dream of making mz own ship to sail around the globe. Scince I dont know even where to begin with i decided to stat bz researching this field on the net hoping to get a solid start. For me this is a determined life long project and any help would be very apreciated

Thanks

Hi Arslan. How's life over there these days?

There are book recommendations in these threads:
Confused about Designing a Hull & "Principles of Yacht Design"
Need reading material and assistance for an amateur with a serious interest!

Also pages on the internet:
Ted Brewer Presents A Primer on Yacht Design
Technical Resources here on BD.net
