Design of Yatch

Objective: The objective of this project is to design all the components of Yatch using Solidworks software and assemble all the parts accordingly.

Introduction: A yacht is a sail or power vessel used for pleasure, cruising, or racing.To be termed a yacht, as opposed to a boat, such a pleasure vessel is likely to be at least 10 m in length and may have been judged to have good aesthetic qualities.

Design Methodology:

Each part are named below and their design approch will be discussed-

1. Superstructure: It is the upper portion of the yatch, inside which driver and yatch members can be seated.

It has been designed by adding surfaces patch by patch by refering to its blueprint.

Finally the surfaces are solidifdfied and further features are designed considering the aeerodynamic design and stability of yatch.

Superstructure

2. Hull- hull is the base of yatch, inside which whole yatch devices like motors and mechanism parts are assembled. It is the main frame or base of the yatch, where all other parts are assembled.

Its design is also complex similar to superstructure, where many features of surface, curves and solid modelling are used to completely design the part.

3. Front Seat: This is the seat at the front end of yatch. It has been designed comparitively simply using solid modelling features of Solidworks.

4. Middle Seat:

This is the seat at the middle of yatch. It has been designed comparitively simply using solid modelling features of Solidworks.

5. Rear Seat: This is the seat at the rear of yatch. It has been designed comparitively simply using solid modelling features of Solidworks.

Rear Seat

6. Propellar: This part is attached to the shafts extruding out of Hull, whose basic purpose is to drive the yatch by generating a propelling force. It can be designed using Solid modelling and 3 D circular pattern is used for blade designing.

7. Garage Door: It has been attached to the Hull with cylindircal mate to create proper joint mechanism. It has been designed Solid modelling features only.

8. Radar mast : This has been designed using various features like extrude, revolve etc. of solid modelling and mated with reference to the radar reference surface obtained from designing of superstructure.
