Are there any female yacht designers?

There is Hanneke Boon who works with James Wharram

There's Juliane Hempel: http://www.hempel-design.com/

There's always been one female student every other year on the design course at Southampton, but not many.

I think Betty Sue Sherman in San Diago is a Naval Architect, but now mainly coaches.

Pretty sad really and certainly design symposiums have never been a great place to meet the ladies.
 
Thanks for that Tim,
Nice looking work on the site.
She seems very successful too!
I'll have a look for Hanneke Boon later on Google.This looks like an ETAP but slimmer?

Are there any female yacht designers (not interior styling)?
If so what do their creations look like? :confused:

Future DIL is an architect and one of her fellow female graduates specialized in marine architecture. However I don't know what happened after graduation.
 
Phil Bolger's widow Suzanne co-operated on several of his and did a few of her own. Not sure of her qualifications though.
Friend of mine had a long conversation with PB, just before his death, about a sail trading boat. Suzanne was in it more than PB. (not surprising, as his mental state was getting vague.
