Dont bother trying to enlarge those drawings... they are too small..

Ask Joe to email you some better (larger) drawings...

I've done the maths...

26'
26' = 312"
312" @ 1:16 = 49.92"

Drawing at 100% print out measures 1.5625"

49.92" / 1.5625" = 31.9488 times... or 3094.88%

28'
28' = 336"
336" @ 1:16 = 53.76"

Drawing at 100% print out measures 1.71875"

53.76" / 1.71875" = 31.2785 times... or 3027.85%

At about 3000% a 1/32" thick line on the original drawing will be around 1" wide on your enlarged print!..

Better still, ask joe if he can mail you a copy of his original drawings to have enlarged!.

The image you sent me was 8x10-ish. I scaled it to E-size (34x44) and it's a little blotchy, but you can build if you know what you're doing. It would give you a hull about 26" or so.

A PDF is attached to the e-mail reply. Just ask them to print it on 34x44 (100%) and you should be OK.

Toesup,... You need to stop divideing by 1/16

You should be dividing 312" by 16" not 1/16"

The model should only be 19.5" long....

The 28 foot model at 1/16th scale should only be 21" long...
