Since the beginning Laurent Giles has been associated with large sailing yacht designs. Over the years we have developed a unique understanding of the design of sailing vessels, yachts and motor sailors.
Large sailing vessel design requires a thorough understanding of the science of aero-dynamics and behaviour under sail. Laurent Giles is one of the few naval architects with the experience and understanding required.
Our experience is backed by modern performance prediction software (VPP), in-house tank testing and free running model trials.
A selection of services are outlined below and can be tailored to meet specific requirements.
