The Naval Architect
For more than 50 years, The Naval Architect has provided RINA members with accurate, in-depth information on all aspects of vessel design, construction and engineering.
From 2025, the publication will incorporate RINA’s previous range of esteemed titles, including Ship & Boat International, Warship Technology and Shiprepair & Maintenance, combining these magazines’ strengths and editorial expertise to create a fresh, supercharged publication.
The relaunched title now offers a comprehensive overview of developments in naval architecture, covering everything from superyachts and short-hop ferries to tankers and heavy-lift vessels; battery pack installations and sail-assisted solutions to LNG tank retrofits; and offshore safety to warship resilience.
Subscription Pricing
The Naval Architect is published 11 times annually, with a joint November/December issue rounding off the year. The title also publishes regular online content, eNewsletters and special social media posts.
