For over 20 years as an industrial designer,
Stu Whitcomb has created a broad range of hi-tech and consumer
products with companies such as Tektronix and Philco-Ford.
While Attending Rhode Island School of
Design, Stu raced college dinghies and occasionally the family
yawl in the CCA races on Long Island Sound. When in the U.S
Army and during his continued design training at the Art Center
College of Design in Los Angeles, he raced a Lightning in San
Pedro. His sailing experiences also include years of cruising
the New England Coast, the waters of the Columbia River and
Puget Sound on a variety of vessels.
Stu has merged his design and boating experience
to create rich and accurate hi-tech yacht illustrations directly
from your plans and in some cases photos. These yacht illustrations
are what Stu calls "High Definition Yacht Illustrations".
These yacht illustrations are developed
on a computer and are typically printed with airbrush quality
onto watercolor paper using a very high-resolution 7-color
ink jet printer. Other printers are available too. For ultra-high
resolution, the LED printer images onto a 50-year life archiving
photo paper. For handouts and mass mailings, high volume laser
prints are available.
