Darren,

If you have the lines of the boat already figured, one of the easiest ways to get the panels is to use the Unfold software by Doug Garmon. You can download it for free at the link below. It gives you extremely accurate panel shapes, and is quite easy to use. E-mail me if you have questions or problems.
