50m concepts

I’m going to stay in the 50m range for a while and making it easy on my part by shrinking some of the 72m designs, for starters...

Dutch job?

By using the fly bridge and windows section of the 72m sailboat concept in combination with a slightly altered “C-pillar” and hull opening, the previous 48m design, could perhaps be one of those Dutch jobs?

Thanks atomare, you're too kind!
For some of my favorite concepts, I do have G.A’s, or parts of. The problem is that, some of the great new solutions end up in the G.A. design and the not so new and great doesn’t, making the G.A. half complete and not interesting enough to end up in this forum.

It takes me a lot longer to make the G.A. compared to a new exterior design, and since no one comments regarding the G.A. for a particular design, it’s an easy choice to move on to a new design rather than the G.A.

Maybe I should start to describe some of the solutions I have in mind for the concepts in the absence of a complete G.A. or posting the interesting details and graying the rest out… that's a thought.

Atomare, I think you’re absolutely right about the top view making the design feel more complete. I guess I’ve been thinking a top view wouldn’t do unless the complete GA followed.

...another Dutch job?

48m. No top view yet though.

Yes, it's been done before

...but still interesting, I think.

48m

…with some classical touch.

'Woody'

...with some minor modifications.

...perhaps in white, stretched 5m?

52m again with some classical touch.

Most of the lines borrowed from the 53m concept above.

Some of the latest designs…

…in size comparison.

53m Explorer.

I’m planning a series of Explorer yachts in the 50m range starting off with this 53m.
Again, most of the lines from the previous 53m concepts.

I’m afraid the time needed to learn, really isn’t on my side. I would need a crash course.

53m and 59m
