Aurora was contracted by Sharp Design Naval Architects in 1996 to provide engineering and system design services for building large motor yachts in steel, aluminum and advanced composites. In addition to the vessels shown, projects included construction of a new 65’ composite motor yacht for Fleming Yachts and a new series of 46’, 44’ and 42’ motor yachts for Defever Yachts.
From 2000 to 2003, the Aurora team took the lead in engineering and project management for large, custom international and domestic motor yachts, production vessels, and refits. Featured vessels not shown: a 62’ composite sportfisher (SF) – refit, repower and transom extension; a 60’ composite SF – refit, and transom extension; and the Tully, a 40m aluminum Benetti motor yacht – system refit.
