I've got a question for those using the free hull software found on:
http://www.carlsondesign.com/#Professional_Shareware

What are putting of a beam?
The full beam or half?
I put in the full beam, and it looked like I doubled it :confused:
I checked the stations and it was double, since you work with half stations.

But then which displacement do you use?

On the brighter side my center of bouyancy along lengthwise, stem to stern, is right where I predicted it! :)
