Today is the second day of our lofting training. In the morning, Chris discussed about the lofting schedule with us. A lofting schedule shows the process or the code of the lofting. The following is the lofting schedule for the dinghy (actually, this schedule can be applied to lofting of any boats, as a good lofting schedule changes little)

Deck Line - HB

Canoe Body - P

As I finished the grid yesterday, I started to draw curves this morning. Following the steps of the lofting schedule, I can easily find out what should I do now and what to do next.
