About
I am the sole developer of a method to fabricating True Round Steel and Aluminum Boats know as 'Bezier Chine Design and Construction'.
I studied small craft design at the 'Westlawn Institute of Marine Technology'.
I also contributed several articles, which were published in 'Boatbuilder' magazine on metal working methods as related to steel and aluminum hull construction.
My book 'True Round Metal Boat Building', available on Amazon fully detail the theory of 'Bezier Chine Design and Construction', the theory of 'Approximate Development', and time test metalworking methods used in metal hull fabrication. The book illustrates how 'One Of' True Round steel and aluminum hulls are within the skill level of amateur builders. It also enable professional builders of hard chine boats to add true round steel and aluminum hulls to their product line.
The Bezier 12.5 is the prototype build. It is a classic styled, tumblehone, aluminum, true round hull design. It was built by myself to illustrated the construction end of 'Bezier Chine' design.
