We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer Renato Goncalves about their original and creative Bowrider Motorboat design work. Renato Goncalves is an award-winning industrial designer, that makes our world a better place with their original bowrider motorboat works.
Renato Goncalves ("RG") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work FS 275 Wide Bowrider Motorboat. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
RG : FS 275 Wide was designed for those who seek a boat for daily use, that doesn't take up space with a large cabin because no one intends to sleep over. However, a small cabin is required for the use of children, and we did it without taking space from the cockpit.
RG : FS 275 Wide is already one of the best selling boats in Brazil. The award we won is now helping us achieve new markets worldwide.
RG : Almost 2 years of design and manufacturing the mold.
RG : First we had the demand for such a boat, and then we sought out inspiration to design it in a way no one had ever achieved.
RG : It is being produced by us, FS Yachts Boatbuilder.
RG : We manufacture and sell boats since 1998.
RG : Many boat designs we have seen in dozens of boat shows around the world.
RG : The way in which we added 2 rooms (Bathroom and cabin) without taking space from the cockpit on a day use.
RG : FS is the brand name. 275 is the boat size (27,5 ft), and Wide is a surname for a boat with lots of cockpit space.
RG : Rhino 3D and a 4-axis CNC router.
RG : The cockpit layout.
RG : As a very distinctive boat from every other marine vessel in the world, we felt it had all the requirements to win a design competition.
