Eric Hodgson

Marine Designer

Biography

Having grown up in a marine family, Eric has been around boating and water sports (surfing, diving, fishing) for his entire life. He has combined this passion with his other love, computer aided design. Earning an electronics degree in 1987, he pursued additional coursework in computer programming, data processing and computer aided design. Since then he has worked continuously with AutoCAD, the industry leading software, in every version from its inception on DOS based computers to the current release. Very few people in the world can equal Eric’s speed and accuracy with AutoCAD.

Eric began his career implementing and supervising a variety of CADD applications, including circuit board schematics and layouts, gas station site plans, machinery installation methodology, cartography consulting, and CADD department manager for a petroleum company. In 1997 he became a self-employed CAD designer and consultant, with projects ranging from yacht engineering and refitting, to docks, seawalls and fuel storage facilities, to architectural and landscaping plans for commercial and residential buildings. This diverse experience supports him well in providing DFD with CAD services and oversight of the design office.
