My boyfriend has aspirations to design boats and I’d love to get him some Rhino training he can use as a holiday gift. I know nothing about Rhino though so does anyone have any suggestions of what I should buy or coordinate for him?
Hi @Jessica_Day
Here are some free links for Boat design you might find further paid tuts on their links. I think many of the paid tutorials use plugins geared toward ship building in rhino that cost extra money like Orca.

Orca3D Marine Design Software Overview
Orca is a marine plugin geared toward boat design but is a paid addon.
Though not Rhino freeship looks interesting for boat building

Oh gosh! This is super helpful. Should I get him the Orca add on then as a gift, as well??
Hi @Jessica_Day
This I don’t know, I’m not a boat builder. I’d wait a few days hopefully the boat building people will chime in.
Here is the orca link, students get a discount and they have yearly subscription or perpetual license which costs more.
