: With "import surfaces" you can import basically anything you want,
: just instead of importing stations coordinates try importing the keel
: line, the chine line and sheer line, if you want add the cockpit too.

: From there the control points will be on the lines you imported (and i dont
: mean on the hull surface rather they will describe exactly those lines)
: setting those as hard chines, the ends as corners etc would give you a
: model in no time.

That is not my experience. I imported cross sectinos using the surfaces import method. The controlnet that I saw was one where (a) all cross sections were interpolated eliminating any S&G chines, and (b) the smoothed curves were also angled at different pitch depending on their position in the length direction.

I wonder if I am doing something wrong or if you know something that I don't?
