Mac softwares?

Are there any (Mac) softwares that would be good for designing a kayak? I have no prior experience in this sort of thing, the design I have in mind is pretty straightforward.

Thanks, interesting site

TouchCAD should do an excellent job.

The included example took 13 minutes to model from nothing to the renderd image, all done in TouchCAD (the woman was imported from a library. Not great looking perhaps, but you don't get much design in such a short time.

TouchCAD. It will do a whole lot more than kayaks.

But, it is straight forward to learn and simple to use once you do a couple of the tutorials.
