Maritime Hull Design and Fairing Training

January 30 – March 13, 2026

Rapid Hull Modeling for: Ships / Yachts / Workboats / Multihulls

Class-A Fairing – Final Design – Fairing for Production – Hull Optimization – Reverse Engineering – Hull from GA/ Lines-Plan – Advanced Analysis – Modeling Strategies – Developable Hulls

Rhino enables accurate, flexible and fair vessel hull design with the “Rapid Hull Modeling Methodology”.
This method is developed by naval architect Gerard Petersen from RhinoCentre in co-operation with other professionals in the marine industry.
After years of offering training and services to leading companies in the marine industry worldwide, RhinoCentre developed three unique training modules to guide you in modeling, fairing and reverse engineering of vessel hull shapes.

Three training modules are covered in four live training sessions of two hours. In between the live sessions you practice the exercises as self-study with the instructional videos and written out exercises.
For trainees around the world, the four live sessions are offered in two editions. Check which edition suits you best depending on your schedule and time zone. When you purchase this training, please send an email to tell us for which edition you apply.

Testimonial
“I feel Gerard’s live training was very valuable not just for the Rhino information and CAD file preparation he shares but more so for the years of experience in hull design which inform his modeling approach. With a friendly and patient manner he engages you in the process as opposed to simply reporting how it’s done, he’s an inspiring teacher!”
