Yes there's quite some latitude in the UK. I've done wood/epoxy 'developments' of pre 1950 designs that have been enthusiastically embraced as 'historical replicas'.

 

which boats are these

 

I find your comment about "true colours" rather insulting. The book "Working Boats of Britain" will allow to justify scantlings of historical replicas. You started the post asking questions a student should have answers for, and then get agressive when someone points out that claiming you "designed" a boat means all the answers you ask for should already have been answered. Insults may satisfy your ego, but do not give you any stature as a self describes boat designer.

 

i have been documenting & calculating scantlings for near 30 years, yet you imply i cant,
Iain Ougtred called me a designer, i didn't , until today i thought you were a good bloke, but i dont care for your patronising, arrogant attitude,
you sneer at lloyds rules, we built lulworth with a lloyds surveyor, using those rules

 

That is an outright lie. Where did I say anything against Lloyd's rules?
