Designed Boat Plans
Offered a position as a designer with
TOM FEXAS YACHT DESIGNS,
as a team we designed luxury power boat designs for companies such as Mikelson, Kadey Krogen, Morgan, Carmargue and others, with designs ranging from 55ft to 200ft.
Tom Fexas Yacht Designs, founded in 1966 by the renowned designer Tom Fexas, has pioneered some of the most unique and influential powerboat designs of the second half of the 20th century. With about 1,000 vessels to their designs, ranging from 17-ft. launches to 160-ft. motoryachts, with designs from the famous Midnight Lace series, to projects for Palmer Johnson, Cheoy Lee, American Marine, Burger, Derecktor, Royal Denship, Knight and Carver, Mikelson Yachts, and others.
Bowdidge Marine Designs was approached to design a commercial 5.5metre (18ft) aluminium Punt for the councils & park rangers (particulary the gulf region) to service the coastal national parks in Northern Australia.
The requirements for the design was it had to be built from aluminium, CNC cut files, powered by a 60Hp Honda outboard, to have the capacity to carry 5 workers with their required gear for their jobs (chainsaws etc ) or, for 2 people/ a quad bike and required gear, which is used to carry out pesticide jobs within the National parks.
Naturally, since these waters are where the big salt water crocs also reside, freeboard also had to be taken into consideration for SAFETY.
