    Your best bet might be to digitise a lines plan and develope the cad model from there. Lines plans for rowing boats are fairly easy to come by. Alternatively e-mail the companies producing the lines-plans. They may be willing to send you a CAD drawing (or file) for the same cost as the lines-plan.

    Why don't you just draw one the way you think it should be?

    SailDesign Old Phart! Stay upwind..

    noonagon, when you say it is "due" soon, is this your way of telling us that you SHOULD be designing it yourself for a class project?
    If so, may I suggest doing your own homework. If not, may I suggest ignoring the sentence beofore this :)
