Bill Dixon

Website

(From Company Website)

Bill Dixon first worked for highly respected naval architect Angus Primrose and it was his knowledge, encouragement and enthusiasm that so helped Bill in his early days.

With the death of Angus in 1981, Bill made the decision to keep the business going and it says much for him that many clients stayed on board, including Moody Yachts - a client for some years prior to Angus’death and still one today.

Companies cannot survive however, by always looking to the past, and we pride ourselves on our forward thinking in all areas of yacht design. Design which has produced landmark vessels such as ‘Yanneke Too’ (International Superyacht Award winner in 1995), ‘That’s Y’, the Moody 54 (British Nautical Awards winner, 2000) and Liara. In the next edition of this publication we will start featuring these designs, describing how our innovation is moving yacht design further on.
