: Never mind on the last question. I just found an old copy of
: FreeShip and exported the offsets of one of my models. At some
: point the offset format was changed between DelftShip and
: FreeShip, and DelftShip no longer outputs the knuckle locations.
: I asked a question about it over at the Delftship forum.

: Right now it seems like the easiest way to accomplish this from
: DelftShip is:

: 1. Model kayak.
: 2. Define station locations.
: 3. Add control curves to the stems.

: Then:

: 1. Save As -> Version 2.6 file
: 2. Open in Freeship
: 3. File -> Export -> Offsets

: The stems are defined in the curve offsets.

: Unfortunately, you need the Pro version of Delftship to convert the
: file. If someone needs a hand at that conversion, I'd be more
: than happy to do one model for you.

Perhaps I am being dense, but I don't understand why you can't model it in FreeShip if you have it, rather than starting off in DelftShip and converting the file?
