Personally I find delfship is more trouble than its worth. Even though anyone can make a hull in it, it takes someone who is trained to make a hull that looks right.
But the basic Idea is that you make a new hull (click the "new" button) then enter the length and depth, along with how many points you want in the hull (general rule is for every 5 metres have 1 dot). Then simply drag the little dot things around until you get a hull that you like.
To be honest though, the best thing to do is simply play around with it, until you get to grips with the software :)  Don't be afraid if you don't get how it works at first, i've got a pile of 50 hulls on my PC, all of them failures!

So it's 'just' a 3D building tool? Was that so difficult to write it down instead of pointing out to me that I could 'google' for it?
Anyhow, in that case I'm not good for any help to You.
Sorry!

Sorry to say, but I heared that that was only possible in GS6.  :(

Is there a way I can backdate to GS6?
