I don't believe a boat with a L/B ratio of 4.6 could be called a fat boat, Steve Dashew's more contemporary power boats have 4.7 and they don't...
Love the big red sculpture. Must be a hoot when the wind gets up and its Develop able too!
Botho your new model is coming along nicely. I would suggest you look at the longitudinal stiffness as the higher the stiffness the easier it is...
Botho in Maxsurf try three bonded surfaces for the hull and one for the deck, use another surface for the counter using that to trim hull and deck...
PatrickH If you want to start moving on with this I am happy to help with advice and comment, you can PM me.
In display, rendering, try turning off any hardware acceleration and try a different shading out put like gaussian curvature as a test. Was there...
SBCnaval the surfaces appear locked so you will not see any control points, also check that the visibility of the surfaces is also turned on. Make...
Mikejohn as abcdefg so modestly put it you had leak points making trimming hard to achieve. If you use “duplicate edge” to form a line around the...
Tansl thanks, agreed
Tansl yes you can get a smooth edge from an intersection of two smooth surfaces or you can create smooth edges and get a smooth surface, its a...
Tansl If we look at the original post, temo said “*What I discovered was that the hull is not 100% fair along the chines. So I've been thinking if...
Tansl you need tools within the software to analyse and magnify curvature to get a true smooth curve on a computer screen. A smooth curve with out...
Tansl no problem, I know its not part of you work flow to do this but I was interested in seeing the differences. I copied two chine lines across...
Tansl I'm interested in the “normal vectors” as a method for showing smoothing. Could you post a picture of the file in post 17 with them on, say...
