All the forms will share DWL, centerline and 70 degree diagonal. So you can superimpose forms and these lines should be on top of each other.

The sheer line is a different case. It will be in a different location on each form. The sheer line is a line representing the shape of the boat. The other lines are part of an arbitrary three-dimesional grid in space.
