Boat Hull model

Ivor,
You can use section views to get the shape you want. With Design CAD if you work with elipse functions two or more usually are involved with boats.
There is also a product called BobCAD that can surface the design from the cross sections and then a model can me machined upside down.(Keel up)
Let me know if that helps. I have a CNC router that I got to do small boat models let me know if can help?
