Boat Designing drawing or Software

[opc167]

I need some assistance please. I have the study plans for the Bandido Glen-L. I can start building the hull and what I’d like to do is design the decking with my own design. Other than taking hundreds of photo’s of modern boat designs and also wood boats to use as a design guide, what would be a good software to use that’s not very costly so I can draw my own deck layout? I’m trying to incorporate a modern hull look (cold-mold) but on the deck, I want to design it with the wood trim like the modern Chris Crafts. Also, desire to use plush leather, etc. Any info, I would appreciate it.

Best Regards, Chris Brooks – Macon Ga.
