Jacobus Brouwer

About

I’m Jacobus Brouwer, a first-year Yacht & Powercraft Design student at Southampton Solent University.

I design vessels that hopefully make you as happy as they do me — working across the full design spiral from initial concept through hydrostatic analysis to production-ready technical drawings. Currently my toolkit spans Maxsurf for hull modelling, AutoCAD for technical drafting, and hands-on model testing in the lab.

I’m building this site to share my work, document my learning, and connect with others in the maritime engineering and yacht design world.

Current Projects

I’m always happy to talk about yacht design, naval architecture, or potential collaborations. Find me on the contact page or connect on LinkedIn.
