Open-deck Catamaran AQ-17
The AQ-17 is a 17-meter steel hybrid yacht-catamaran — a silent and stylish cruiser with a large open deck, a spacious saloon, guest cabins, and a possible layout featuring a spa area.Designed for families, groups, and commercial use, the vessel offers an unconventional superstructure configuration that creates a strong sense of individuality. The yacht is designed to accommodate up to 12 people on board.At present, the steel part of the vessel has been built, including the hulls, bulwarks, bridge structure, and lifting steps. A complete design package has been developed for the superstructure, roof, and steps, including structural calculations and stiffness simulations showing displacements and stresses in key structural nodes. The project scope includes concept development, visualizations, layouts, 3D modeling, element unfolding, laser-cutting files, steel sheet nesting, and assembly drawings.
