As to the FBM files, they are opened in Delftship, not in SketchUp.

I know, but no possibility to import in something for Mac ?

I can't Dave !
This is a commercial boat and I can't give the structure, it's not my property !

TIG'S tools are great but they will not create the correct surface until you give them good information. Form your PICS that does not look like the case. The reason I gave you the Delft link was to show you what a good model is not that you should use it to make your model. The Bow wrinkle IMHO is caused by inadequate surface definition.

Hello,

I am trying to buidl a hull.
I trie many solutions ans many plugins.
Curviloft help me a lot, but I need a scond hull in the first..
