As you can see, the stern profile is now perfect, but the bow needs just a little heightening

Yes this is true. The problem is that the boat does not sit like it's suposed to in the water, so a compromise level will need to be reached as the stern sits higher than it should. This will take some experimentation.

Torps brought this up, and we'll be playing with the draft some more. Just remeber, these are "roughed in" as stated, which means theres room for adjusting.

If the FR_ratio problem can be fixed OR if the origin of the model can be moved w/o screwing everything up, we might be able to get it right.

I sent UBI the link to the thread I created about the sub ride height and the the stern sticking out of the water. Last thing I was told, was this issue was forwarded to the appropriate R&D department. So it might be in the addon???
