Hullscant

Does anybody have any experience with Wolfon Institute's Hullscant program for determining ISO 12215 scantlings?

Thanks Alik,
I decided to go ahead and order it...
Reluctantly jumping on the (expensive!) ISO bandwagon... and I hate writing spreadsheets!!!

I have been using HullScant for almost 2 years now and echo Alik's response. Relatively easy to use. I added the rudder module as soon as it was released and am looking forward to the keel module which will probably be released near the end of the year.

I am not sure if all the classification societies are using it, but RYA and IMCI do so it makes it easier to work with them.
