Best Yacht Drawing Program on Mac

Hey guys,

I'm using rhino for mac at the moment to draw yachts on my computer but I was wondering if they are any other good programs out there for yacht design on Mac.

Thanks,

Victor

TouchCAD

You could have a look at TouchCAD. Runs on both Mac and Windows

http://www.touchcad.com

Have a look at the 20 minute marine design presentation movie found here:

Just emulate PC software and move on. Apple does wonderful things, but the predominance of code writing is PC based. You can fight this or work with it, it's your call.
