To build a model you need the lines and we can not sell the lines as a study plan, sorry.<BR>The purpose of the study plans is to study feasibility and to get a better idea of cost: that is why we supply detailed sail plans with them for example.<BR>

You can: 1 or 2" are not going to affect the hull performance.

To make things easier, we will post a drawing of the motorwell sides with more dimensions.<BR>Check the Plans Updates section within one hour.

After thinking about the whole week-end, I lowered the chine.
