My two favorites from Royal Huisman have stern anchors, Athena and Arcadia.
Thanks for trying to find info, but this clarification is about protecting hull designs in the US, not about what Sensation is doing. There are a...
Hi Carl, I have only seen a handful of wavepiercer yachts built and have never tried to design one. But a wavepiercer accommodation is much more...
Hi, Since no real experts has replied yet, I´ll give my view. On gas, I like it too and have it onboard myself. There are remote control valves...
At first I took this for two boats side by side, but it was all on the same hull so I took a picture for our little collection...:)
I think you are missing that most of those similar designs are made by the same designer...:) http://www.***************/paginas/begin.htm
Thanks Tad, I know that going to court is a waste of time and money when dealing with guys like this. And this is not as when Hinckley for a...
At present i am writing a column on Superyachts in a Swedish powerboat magazine. It is just to give the readers a little insight in this world,...

This is quoted from their Press Release; "Using its specialist composite techniques and having started construction already, Sensation...
Copyright on designs are generally not registered, unless you have invented Sliced Bread ;) but publication can be an important factor when you...
Yes it is very close and I doubt there is an independent designer giving up his reputation. It is rather some inhouse people working on orders...
To check this, I put both designs towards the same background and the similarities are then even more obvious to me. But in a port you will see...
I agree, but it is hard to believe. The red lines are telling us that the center part is the same and the ellipse on the top roof is showing where...
As most designers I am inspired from what I see in other designs. It may be a mast, a window or a stern that I can transform to fit with my own...
Hi Ben, Yes there are boats to avoid, but not brands. A surveyor can find problems on a Feadship and find a Cheoy Lee well worth the money....
In both cases you need to know what you are doing. A one-off design will normally be more expensive than a used and refitted yacht and perhaps...
Not really, I made a grid on top of your drawing but I will not post it...:D /Lars
