The last century saw the introduction of two technologies destined to change wooden boatbuilding forever. The first was epoxy bonding. By making marine glue joints practical, epoxy bonding changed boat joinery as radically as electric-arc welding changed steel fabrication.

The second new technology is computer aided drafting and cutting. From a numerical model of the subject vessel, the loftsmans computer programs produce files depicting the true shapes of a boat's parts--quickly, accurately and repeat-ably. Computer aided drafting replaces the painstaking approximations of traditional lofting. Computer-controlled cutting machines can use the files to automatically produce actual parts from planar materials, such as plywood, at little more than material cost.
