What are correct steps to make a complex shape (surfboard) with sketches.

This is not a complex shape in terms of lots of features, but the cross section changes all throughout the shape.  For example see the below following plan.  I can understand creating sketches for the top view and side view and can create a body of the union.  But if I want to incorporate the 3 cross sections to I guess loft between them, I have no idea how to do that.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

Create the Top View sketch and the File>Export and Attach your *.f3d file here.

Someone will then demonstrate how to create Workplanes at the blue lines and then the profile sketches.

I would do it the same way like modeling a boat (without the hull process ;-))

One quick look, I am not going continue, chasing my tail with the first measurement, and without knowing what you want.

 

The graphic slide is labelled as 1649.9 long,

it was actually 1731 long before I changed it to 1649.9 then I found

sketch 2, is 1700 long, 

 

Pick a Box?

 

Size is the first criteria to consider, then I model in Fusion at 100% size. 

Scaling is too difficult in if you were to have gone much further.

Use the Origin, in a sensible place.

 

That said. will do one at 1649.9 for demo purposes in the meantime.

The profiles supplied don't flow nicely, 

I found no guide to the profile at the tail, and well the nose is supposed to be as I have it - not nice, 

the scalloping aft of the centre is showing more profiles are needed.

Step the timeline, then Edit Feature to find the settings
