Design Help - Carlson to CAD

I need some help with a design question. I have used Carlson Hull designer to draw up a boat. I want to take the design to a CAD program, either Turbocad or Solidworks so I can flatten out the pieces and make templates for a model. Any suggestions on how to do this the easiest, most efficient way possible?

Thanks,
Patrick

When you hit "Save" Check all the boxes on the right. should save everything in 2D and 3D (Dxf) , expanded geometry, stations, etc...

Cheers

Thanks for the help. That worked just fine. I'm amazed at what I can see on Turbocad that I can't see on Carlson. Still haven't figured out how to print off some decent patterns to cut the model with, but I'll get there soon.
