Fusion 360 Loft = Boundary Boss/Base in Solidworks ?

[lutz_s]

Hello guys, 

I hope somebody will be able to help me. My question to you is: Is Loft function in Fusion 360 equivalent to Boundary Boss/Base in Solidworks? 

I think it is not... 

Please see below which problem I have. 

I am trying to design a jetpump. I was following this tutorial which is for Solidworks, but I tried to recreate it in Fusion 360: LINK 

Now I stumbled upon a problem. I designed the same sketch in Fusion 360 and Solidworks. And when I try to loft it in Fusion 360 and boundary boss it in solidworks I get 2 different outcomes. The outcome should be the same? At least I think so. 

Please see the difference between the 2 objects (bear in mind sketches are the same in both software): 

- Solidworks: 

Nice, smooth curvature "on the back"

And now Fusion 360: 

Here in Fusion you can see the back is not as nice and straight as it is in Solidworks, but you get some kind of a "sinkhole" in the middle while the edge is lifted a bit. All in all, it does not follow the curve I sketched... 

Can somebody please help me to get the same result as I am getting in Solidworks? Is that even possible? 

Thank you for your help in advance!

The tutorial lofts between a radiused rectangle to a circle.

Yours does not loft from a radiused rectangle.
