    Hi everyone

    I'm currently studying Yacht and Powercraft Desig at Southampton. For one of our final year assignments we have to analyse a catamaran structure using a given software.
    I would very much appreciate it if there's any chance of receiving some CAD drawings and technical data of a composite racer or cruiser catamaran, somewhere between 10-20meters.

    Please note that any plans given are not for professional use, and will only be academically evaluated. Any data used will be stated to be yours and permission for usage will also be declared.

    Thank you in advance, you'd be a great help!

    I did your course from 1975-78.

    So email me with more details of what you need and I'll see if I can sort something out for you. It may take a couple of weeks though, as I am snowed under with work right now until at least the end of the month

    Thank you for replying. However the deadline is next week, I've sent you an email with the details just in case.
    I hope to hear from you soon.
