if you must also make renderings of presentation, advertising and the like must be taken into account

the design process of a boat is a bit different from that of a mechanical piece.
in the second case (in general) you plan in 3d, then you make the harvests at the table. in the first case instead you start from the general plans before again (always in general, eh) to start to make 3d. the general plans are the equivalent of the architectural plan of the houses, an example pulled down from google is reported below.
the plants of the bridges that you see right for a 70 feet can have 20 or 30 different versions of proposal and then arrive at 3-5 final versions to be proposed to the market. this before pulling one, single surface.
to say "face in 3d, me autocad does not like" is to today unproposable.
I repeat however, the design of a boat rotates around three main roles:
1. the designer
2. the naval architect (who is not an architect, but an engineer. I know, but it's also called in Italian. . . )
3. the construction site.
these three guys make three different jobs with three different software.

I think you are worrying too much, I see that our man, after the remarkable initial enthusiasm and extreme kindness, abandoned the ship! :

exactly. for the construction site, I can't say how the production takes place, I imagine you will have to prepare molds on which to spread the fiberglass (or products like that) so for the preparation the molds will take some tables with the measures so that to work of cad (in this phase) I think it is necessary.
but first of all it will take the construction of the model to evaluate its shape, rationalization of the spaces etc. and at this point it is necessary to choose which software to use.
There is the embarrassment of choice. they all look very good

the molds normally cut from 3d, so do not need tables.
in case they build by hand, they cut the handles and serve an assembly design.
the yard, as already said, uses rhino, or, if evolved, a parametric software, solidworks, solidedge, nx, catia. they are all software I have seen at yards.
the other software mentioned, are or specific for metal constructions, or naval architect software that performs stability studies.
as it says fulvio, it is true that the customer propose tables in 2d, but it develops immediately the 3d of the model, to check ingombs and geometries, at least regarding the sailing department, where the spaces are more exploited and the less squared geometries.
normally pre design takes place in rhino, faster, then switch to parametric software, or even not, in case

in fact the information passes and something remains always though at the moment professionally it does not seem to interest.

It's very important that you choose a software that doesn't make water anywhere.

as often happens when a noob who has no idea what to do comes to ask for advice.. .I think it has become an inter nos conversation
which then reflected on the concept of "statistically more used" as "best"...the two things do not always coincide

a decade ago I remember that among us fans of virtual races aroused great enthusiasm the news that the nadeo allowed to insert self-built hulls in his racing simulator (category video games, very well done and realistic regarding the graphics). We're going to hunt for software that could easily build a hull.
looking on the web I found a software that I had forgotten the name and that at that time earned many consents (also because it was free). This software in my opinion can be a starting point, at least to build a hull to be imported into a more versatile software.
The software is freeship. nothing particularly professional, but can help in the initial phase of the project. The model can then be imported on other software to continue the construction process. I'll do some tests.
in the video you see an import of the model from freeship to blender

polycad for hulls
Marcus Bole - PolyCAD
PolyCAD allows you to create, manipulate, import and export geometry for yacht and ship yacht design. It focuses on rapid and accurate modelling of curves and surfaces to support hull design using a variety of techniques from simple section geometry to multi-patch surfaces defined by Design Intent.

true, but remains for those who want to read and learn, for example I, who live among the rocks, the only water I see is the snow that melts and in a ship yard I have never been there, I learned something even today, reading the discussion.I think it has become an inter nos conversation
if then who had placed the initial question did not have the answer that he wanted to hear himself say, sin, but a forum is far more question- > answer.
or at least, to precise question you can get a precise answer, to question does not vague, but even more vague, you can get a vague answer, or questions to understand what it really needs who opens the discussion

also provides a platform for online gaming. we raced on virtual skipper, a simulation project regatta by now stopped because obviously not remuneration as other popular video games.
there are many fans of online racing, but obviously not enough
