Hi

Personally, I get the top one, then drag it down to the desired height. then you can use the drag and/or rescale tools to make it slanted and make it look more hull like  :)

Also, don't need FRAPS for the pictures, you can use file -> export -> 2D Model

you can use this tutorial i made a while ago:
http://80.95.161.114/shipsim/forum/index.php/topic,8667.msg98320.html#msg98320

even this one is with a bulbous bow, it serves well enough for a vessel without it  ;)
good luck!
