    Hi,

    Can anyone recommend a software design package, I use autocad, ADT and 3D Studio already but am looking for a specialist software for the design of a yacht.

    Also are there any hull and keel analaysis tools available.

    Thanks

    Nic

    For keel design and analysis you could try:

    http://www.vacantisw.com/ you can do lift drag analysis on the keelform you design. Vacanti is very helpful.

    cheers
