    :?:
    I have read about naval engineers, industrial designers, mechanical engineers etc. who have or want to become yacht designers. Do any of you know of architects ( AIA type, residential or commercial buildings ) who have become or added yacht design to their portfolio in the USA ? I am working on a project that needs this info. Thank You in advance !

    I don't know of anyone in the US however there is a designer that designs both Houses and Boats in New Zealand the names Stuart Ried of SR Reid designs he designs small boats mainly radio control model yachts and dinghies and power and sail boats. He's an building architect by trade but got into yacht design as a hobby and now designs it professionally. I don't know if he still designs houses or not.
