Pov....I tend to consider that hull frames would be limited to the RED  level......& that bulwarks above that in GREEN would be additional to the hull structure


A further detailed understanding of the hull structure is required....Derek

Sorry - disagree, the Sea Sheherd has no bulwarks!

The area between the red and green lines is marked on the plan as a knuckle. On the actual boat its a rubber fender.

Check this link - at the bottom of the article there are some very good pics.

The curve on the top of the section plan is the sheerline or deck edge.

The camber height is shown on the side elevation. I would be tempted to suggest as this is a first model that you ignore the camber and make the deck flat, makes life alot easier when fitting out the deck area.

Hope this helps
