Drawing boats is not the only think I do,

But assembling something from primitives certainly won't produce a
hull shape.

Take a look here, Winston.

Drawing the lines of a hull isn't easy, but good NURBS modelers today
make it a lot easer. Those are very nice work, Richard.

Take a look at the marine applications of Rhino. It's become popular
for drafting hulls:

That's a great job, Richard.
Clearly you are using a competent CAD program.
Did you mention which one it is?

The 3D 'capture' process is very similar, in Rhino.

I've done very little 'compound curve' capturing but as you see in
Rhino's website, the tools are in place to do that stuff.

We are in violent agreement about the talent of designers
using Rhino, as well.
