Steven,

I used Hamapatch to create the Brig's hull. I took the measurements off the
plans & entered them as coordinates for the patches.

For the ships boats, I am trying a new method. I scanned the plans in and
imported them into the background for Lightwave. I then build the frames
for the boats right on top of the plans in a seperate layer.

Not sure that will help.

Tim
