CLUBSWAN 28

Performance Prediction, Appendage Design

Involved as part of the Juan Yacht Design Team in the development of the ClubSwan 28, conceived as an entry-level model for the ClubSwan line.

The design brief focused on offering pure sailing fun under one-design racing rules, with strong emphasis on responsiveness and ease of handling.

My role included:

  • Performance prediction to refine the sailing characteristics.
  • Appendage design to balance agility, control, and performance across varied conditions.

Main tools: VPP, CFD (Star-CCM+), Python for simulation and design optimization.
