Mr. Tim Kings has served as Project Manager for several high-profile megayachts. Whether it required balancing all the designers who contributed to the effort or conveying a concept to a tradesman on the floor, Mr. Kings is able to draw on a part of his professional background to pull the pieces together at the end ofthe day.

Tim grew up in Pensacola, F lorida with a great fondness for sailing high performance catamarans and a respect for the structuredl ife that goes with a Navy town. He literally worked his way up from the shop floor when it comes  to building large composite yachts.  He learned the various shop floor trades working at Gary Carlin's Kiwi Boat Works in the late 70's.  His artistic flair was rewarded when he started their in-house design office where he produced hundreds of detail design drawings that made Ron Holland's ocean racers a reality.  Mr. Kings would latter hone his design craft in Holland's design office in Ireland.

Always interested in seeing the transformation from drafting table to sailing yacht, Mr. Kings took a job in mainland China  that was nothing more than a leap in self confidence.    Mr. Kings was able to show the workers how to build a fine yacht, learning the Chinese languageas he went. This led him to his dream of building his own design in Taiwan under his detailed, on site supervision.  Many of these Macintosh 45s are happily cruising the globe today.
