Recommended free SW for Mac?

Any recommendations for a free design SW for Mac? Thanks in advance.

 

CAD software for MAC is scarce, if you are serious about using your computer as a boat design tool consider dual booting into Windows.

 

Here a comprehensive list of free apps for Mac https://all3dp.com/2/best-free-cad-software-for-mac/

Not a real CAD but you can do many things if you know how, now also with many add-on to do parametric design and export into IGES very versatile used in architecture and much more.

link about Blender --> add-on to export into IGES, Parametric Add-on for drafting with constraint --> Geometry Sketcher
Some hulls made with Blender ---> CAD Hull made With Blender Add-on for Architecture with one of the best IFC support in the market --> BlenderBIM

not Free but very cheap and very powerful CAD ---> Moi3D Nurbs Modeller can save file for Rhino and into IGES STEP SAT
One of the best CAD for all purposes Rhinoceros

 

There are for sure way more CAD programs for Windows, but that does not mean that there is a shortage of programs for the Mac. Way more than suggested by the comments here, usually written by Windows users with very limited or no knowledge of the Mac scene. Been doing professional boat design and 3D CAD work on the Mac since 1987. The example was 100% designed on the Mac in a professional boat design program for the Mac (and Windows).

 

Yeah there are many but freeware are few also for Windows, I just remind this, jSDN, is a good Nurbs modeller and also freeware and pro

An other specific for boat design is Touch CAD but isn't freeware and is a old

 

Nice, i've been professionally using CAD software for about the same period. One of the first personal computers on which i learned how make use of one was the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_128K The company i work for currently uses about 60% windows, for engineering and 40% apple computers, for administration and graphics design. I'm comfortable in all three of these disciplines.

As an engineer i'm always looking for the best tool for my job. When it comes to boat design those tools, although perhaps unfortunately, are found on Windows.

 

Any newer version of Touchcad, Claes?

 

It's on the way and it's awesome.

 

I think it's already awesome as is, so I can't wait what's new ;-). Keep us posted.
