Is your startup something other than a web app?

Thanks for the link. I'm not necessarily looking for cutting-edge technology, simply something I can use and experiment with for a weekend project. I live on a boat and have been perplexed by how badly designed the interior of most boats and yachts are, so just for fun I drew one up in 3ds max, and I'm thinking about building it. So I'm basically just looking for the best and cheapest way of doing it. If it works out well it might end up being a business but for now it's just a weekend project.

I spent the last 20 years spending 3 months a year living on a boat, I feel you - some of them are poorly done. I have seen many ship yards from the inside, from Sea Ray to Frers, and the higher end stuff is all done this way - but by high end we are talking $200,000+ for a dinghy and millions to make the mold for a full size boat. Bring that price down and cool things will happen. If you want to talk about it more email me at [email protected], I'm very interested

That makes 3 of us that have lived on boats a lot.
