The faces behind the computer screen:
Ricard Teixido
Ricard has an extensive background in Naval Architecture and Civil Engineering with a Masters in Composites Engineering. His designs reflect a intuition that he shared with the late, great Ben Lexan. Perfectly balanced between art and science to produce efficient, powerful hull forms with a distinctive fine entry and flare to cut through the water cleanly and deflect the spray from the deck and crew. Ricard has now progressed from enjoying the success of campaigning his own self-built and designed yacht to now enjoying his growing family with the recent birth of his second child.
Tim Harrold
Tim grew up racing and messing about with boats on Sydney Harbour; from Skiffs to Maxis he is never far from the water. As the antipodean partner, he mixes his background of professional sailing and Industrial Design to produce innovative and functional solutions from the deck designs to the other countless facets of the yacht design process. Basically, Ricard makes them go fast and Tim makes them look good! Passionate about racing and the state of the environment , which currently are mutually exclusive he hopes to develop future projects that will create radical change..
"On an ancient wall in china, where a brooding Buddha blinks
deeply graven is the message 'it is later than you think'.
The clock of life is wound but once and no one has the power
to tell just when the clock will stop at late or early hour
so now is all the time you own, the past a golden link
so go sailing now my brother, it is later than you think."
-read in an old AYRS paper.
