Lines plans and offsets drawings

Lines plans show the hull form of a vessel. A lines plan consists of three views:

• the plan view (a top-down view of the vessel, with waterlines
• the profile view (a side-view of the ship, with buttock lines
• the body plan view (a view of the ends of the vessel, with station lines)

Body plan may show the aft end on one side and the fore end on the other.
