    Hi All,

    I’m currently collecting data on power craft 10-20m for a university design project. I am finding it hard however to extract BWL, the manufacturers websites have been no help! I have BOA and could assume 90% of this as BWL but that’s a bit rough surly!

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Call the manufacturer.
    Try to search for pictures, maybe you can estimate the bwl from those?

    you could try looking at designer's websites, some have a bit more info than manufacturers.
    What kind of info are you trying to study?

    Get yourself to a boat yard with a tape-measure
