      I’m drawing small power skiffs and i want to have one plate that makes up the bottom hull port and starboard. Is there a way I can do this in 3.2? Currently I’m going into plate development and moving the pieces around by hand — very imprecise. Thanks.

      As long as your centre bottom plate is completely flat, it should be merged automatically.

      I usually have about a 10^o ‘v’ dead-rise. I would like to still have one sheet for the bottom; bending it at the center line for the portions aft and not having a weld all the the way down the keel. Is that something DELFT can help me do? That is the way many aluminum jet boats are constructed for additional strength.
