John Simpson – Boat Designer
Topic - Boat Stability
John Simpson has been involved with boats since childhood and this
evolved into a successful career in naval architecture and boat
design. This path has been the long but thorough route – 4 years of
shipyard & technical training, several years of working with other
naval architectures, 3 years with a boat builder doing purchasing,
estimating, mould tooling, outfitting, engine installation, sea trials and
even some design work.
In 1978 John opened his own design office and over the following
years has done over 100 designs for power, sail, pleasure,
commercial and military vessels in a variety of materials for both
domestic and foreign clients. In 1980 he won the Cruising world
magazine’s Design Award for his 42’ cutter ‘Fidelity’. This was a
forerunner of ‘Perelanda” a 43’ round bilge steel sailboat as featured
in the book Steel Away and owned/built by authors LeCain Smith and
Sheila Moir, 2 of the founders of the Metal Boat Society. John was the
2010 Metal Boat Festival’s Designer of the Year and has been a
stalwart supporter of the MBS for many years.
