Thanks Kim...I did read post # 17, however your explanation makes absolute sense...

With respect to dimensional variance, the transom plate appears to have a little [plan view] curvature ...so unless these plate tapping's/holes were CNC cut, a natural dimensional error would inevitably creep in with physical paper/plastic templates being used

All in all, the visual quality of the models and the attached equipment as shown is outstanding & I am not sure the human eye could perceive such miniscule dimensional placement differences between vessels

Keep the images coming :-)).... Derek

Derek
The last picture is meant to show the difference in profile of the plan and model at the transom. Also the fender height that we have been discussing.
Its upside down because it was easier to hold the plan in place like that for the picture.
Also it was meant to help you folks in Australia  :-))

(Edit There have been replies while I have been typing this. Seems we have the same razor sharp wit :})
