Boat Hull gone wrong

Crazy Eyes

I like Rogers suggestion, but I would peronally just Google Catamaran Hull and go from there

Sorry not being nautical, what's the problem?

(Edit: I was too slow, I hope Roger sorted the problem for you)

(Edit: Wow Roger you know your onions! I had to read it in pieces so that I could do some work, Do'h here I go again! Must work must work must....)

EcoFeco,

Try this :http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeship/
You may then import file.obj into SU. Hope it can help.

Thanks for the great answers, especially Roger, though I am familiar with boat and ship basics. I'll be honest and tell you by not a lot, though.

First, I should apologize. My question was related to the problem with the lines that are still showing in the model. When I try to erase them, it also erases the 2 adjacent faces as well. I think this is due to bad polygon placement.

I'm sorry if my question was vague. I do very much appreciate the valuable information I did get.

The current shape of the hull is not complete as I stopped when I ran into the showing lines problem.

Here is an example:

u should erase the inside geometry and later smooth it(u have some rests inside)

O.K. What's a "rest?"

Will I have been working this Saturday and Sunday and I needed that laugh. As I read, I just kept seeing those visuals.

Thanks for the chuckles

The rest is used to refer to all the parts of something or all the things in a group that remain or that you have not already mentioned. QUANT 'of' def-n

* It was an experience I will treasure for the rest of my life. + 'of'
* I'm going to throw a party, then invest the rest of the money.
* He was unable to travel to Barcelona with the rest of the team. + 'of'

* Rest is also a pronoun.
      o Only 55 per cent of the raw material is canned. The rest is thrown away.

in my sentence i used it like residue

Sorry for my english!

here ur model ..i cleaned up the inside geometry wich was useless

Thanks ely862me. I understand now.

So it was the geometry? Hmmm. Good to know.

I'm still learning this program and this boat is just another exercise. When this is done, I will attempt a car.

As always, everyone's help here is very appreciated. You guys truly are the best.

When connections like that do not work, they are probably not really connected.

Zoom way in. As in really extreme and you will probably find that your triangles are not connecting at one point. I fight this kind of problem all the time. I find the only way around it is more care and getting in a lit closer than you might think is necessary. Always bad perception or workflow on my part.

Thanks Roger.
