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.
