engineering is often tailored to suit their preferred materials and construction methods. This helps to both improve the build quality and efficiency and to insure that the as-built product properly represents the design. Should particular projects require it, Farr Yacht Design has extensive experience engineering yacht structures to comply with all manner of classification society and certification authority requirements.

Detail Design & Drafting

Critical to the successful completion of any product is the communication of our design intent and ideas to the builder and client.

To best facilitate this every Farr design package includes an extensive set of detailed design drawings that accurately reflect the as designed geometry. Over the years our drawings sets have been refined to maximize their utility for the builder and we take great pride in the quality and completeness of our drawing sets. Many builders indicate that our drawings are some of the most complete and accurate in the industry.

In addition to design drawings we supply additional information including very detailed weight calculations, assistance with deck hardware selection and specification and expected hardware and rigging loadings. Throughout the course of construction Farr designers and engineers are in discussion with the builders and available to interpret drawings or modify details as necessary. Construction inspection visits can also be arranged. Farr designs have been built by yards all over the world and we can build on many of these long standing relationships to help in streamlining the construction process.
