Klunk
That will keep you busy!

As the proud owner of the tug, the fishing boat and the shelter deck trawler can I ask you 2 questions please. I am looking at the hulls for a scratch build but I am not sure which one as they are all about the same size and look extremely similar on the not very detailed pictures included on the Amera web site.

1. The sterns have slightly different profiles but other than that how similar are they?

2. What is the depth of the hulls as made (rather than after you have cut them to the marked(?) depth.  Are they all the same?
