Systems Layout

Systems onboard yachts are getting more and more complicated. For both new construction as well as refits, it is critically important to properly design and organize the variety of systems onboard. These systems include mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and electronics.  When laying out new systems in a yacht, I consider not only the ease of installation and the balance of weights, but also the access needed to properly maintain the systems (whether by the owner or the mechanic at the yard).
