RINA (Italian registry of shipping)

You might ask yourself why I didn't post anymore projects.
The reason why is because I started to work for RINA from september 2009 in the yacht station of Viareggio, Italy.
RINA s.p.a. works mainly in the field of classification of ships, certification and advanced services to industry. In Viareggio there is an office that works exclusively with yachts and pleasure crafts.

47 feet Motoryacht Hard Top Style

This is my final project in the university.It's a motoryacht of 14,4 meters in lenght with a deep V hull shape with a deadrise angle at midship of 22.45°.
The design speed is 34 Kn achievable with 2 Volvo Penta IPS of 320 kW each.
These are the structures of the boat.

Working in Rodriquez Cantieri Navali

Actually my task in this company was to work around the construction of the aluminum yacht C346 (40 mt) making all kind of jobs and modeling some parts of the boat too.
For example I've been asked to create the bulb, to modify the mast, to model the coverings for the exhaust hole, the arrangement of the sun deck.
The company has a shipyard too, so I could see how the boat was made and how the several parts I created with the computer were actually been built.

the sun deck





I worked also on the building drawings of the 41 meters aluminum yacht designed by Norman Foster and built by Rodriquez Cantieri Navali on the shipyard set in Ameglia, La Spezia (Italy).
It's a time-share (up to 8 owners) yacht built in series. Yacht Plus is it's name and it's also the name of the company that will take care of the bureaucratically aspects.
My task, as above, was assisting the building in site developing neat CAD drawings and aiding the design office with the realization of the ideas and the concept that were coming from the London office.

46 feet ARC Race Sailing Yacht

This is a group project we did in Southampton last year. It was me with other 3 students of Yacht and Powercraft Design. Our project was evaluated as the second best project.
The briefing was: a couple (the buyers) wanted a sailing yacht of 14-15 mt for the ARC race that is the crossing of the Atlantic ocean, leaving from Las Palmas in the Canary Islands. Left from Southampton, they would have reached Las Palmas to get onboard 4 friends. Hence the request was a boat of 6 berths. The couple then required a boat that, when the crossing was ended and they were arrived to Caraibbean, could be very manoeuvrable and adaptable to shallow water.
The project is very detailed. My task was the 3d modeling and many other small jobs.
Greetings to Giulia, Orlando and Tim.
Here is few renders.
