It has been ten months since the inception of Learn Ship Design, and though we are in our baby steps, the year has been full of adventure, undoubtedly because of the support of readers like you. It was with your trust that we have grown, and today we are read by engineers and students belonging to more than 30 countries. We want to THANK YOU for the incredible year. 

Before you read further, we have something special for you. We are launching a series for our Facebook readers. And here's what we call it: LSD FACT CARDS. Be there for the official launch on New Year's Eve.
