    Kreso Senior Naval Architect

    Hi !
    I'm naval architect from Croatia with 7 years of working experience. I've worked in shipyard BrodoTrogir d.d. and small design office Water Line Ltd. I've passed through designing of fishing boats, powerboats range 20'รท78', motor yacht 54m i 73m, midship section of trimaran 50m, I've done stability booklet and damage stability calculation in NAPA for chemical tanker 187m, I have NAPA certificate for hull fairing. I would like to get opportunity for change and for spreading of my working and life experience outside Croatia.
    I've posted my CV and portfolio.

    Ekua V project

    Hi

    Basically do not have a lot of plans or pics . Pretty much an early 1970 's style crew boat . Intention is to try and convert to something similar to a vessel by Cortenzo yacht yard , early 1930 style .
    We do a bit of whale watching and fishing from our lodge so I would operate her in conguction with this business .
    When I get in the office will get the pics and post on here , someone may know of another refit . I had contact with soem guys in the states who were underway with a nice converstion on a sister ship

    What you are proposing will not be cheap. I have no idea what size your boat is, but, it wont be cheap..and once you have looked at getting proper certification, rules, reg's etc for carrying passengers etc, ....oh did i not say, it wont be cheap!

    This is not to scare you, but this is not a backyard weekend job. But requires professional approach and such, will cost money in the services of a naval architect and those doing the outfitting and the client, you, to pay for the outfitting/changes. It wont be cheap...but cheaper than starting from scratch, if done properly.
