    Let me say, not bad! :)

    If you mark lines representing each deck/floor to ceiling on top of the drawing, it will be easier for both you and us to understand if it is "buildable"... ;)

    Something like this, I think. The maindeck have a raised ceiling , rounded side windows go trough decks up to the air tower ;)

    Certainly a distinctive style. Think I like the front half better than the back half. Not sure about the practicalilty of the back half.

    Hi, after looking at the heights versus the length, your yachts are about 36, 54 and 68 m. But there are still decks that are too low (or others too high)...

    It is necessary to make a grid of lines first so you get a somewhat realistic profile. Deck height should be between 2.3 and 2.6 m on yachts this size.

    The boring reality... ;)

    These are just freehand imaginations, I was more thinking about finding some new lines and shapes for yachts.
    Take about 20 minuts to make these drawings but I have to buy something to measure with so it also have the right dimensions.
    Anyway its very fun and easy to design a yacht, functionality be the next try;)

    Are deckheights from floor to ceiling 230-260cm or is floor to floor?
    I think that at some floors there could be hights about 320cm and at crew floors it could be 220cm ?
    How thick is ceiling/floor for the construction and installations?

    You might want to see the yacht Time which is mentioned in another thread.
    She has somewhat similar lines to your creations. Pretty avant garde in 1987, with two Citroens CV2 on the top deck. She also had a jacuzzi, positioned low at the transom where at least some of the water could remain inside... http://www.tomfexas.com/projects/1024/MY_Time.html
