Show your sheer line

Great thread!

The sheer of a boat seems be be somewhat related to perspective. Kokanee has a broken sheer line at deck level, but also has a rub rail accentuating the line of a lower unbroken sheer line. Either one may be more prominent depending on angle and light.

And here's another pic of the same hull without the broken sheer line.

This boat is just over the fairway from me. Not sure of her length, but guessing 70'+

Mine

Nordic Tug 42....moored, Cypress Island

Another old thread coming back, but still relevant. Here's the best I've got for mine. Total rise from the transom to the highest point of the bow is approximately 21 inches aft deck is just shy of 4 feet off the water, foward bow deck is about 5'8" feet off the water.

Thanks! It doesn't quite have the grace of some of their earlier or larger models, but they managed to mostly keep the classic shape. And it's a very functional layout and a good hull, so I'm happy. There are a few things I wish they'd done differently, but nothing too major.

There's a trade off for everything in boating!

Musta missed this in its first incarnation.

We added the boom with hand crank boat trailer winch for hoisting our rather heavy dinghy onto modified Weaver Snap Davits:

This is my current favourite boat. It is unpainted aluminum and is absolutely gorgeous! A real work of art.

Kasten?
