CAD model help required plzzzzz

[Drake2024!]

At 71 years young, I've just bought myself a second-hand Rc Clyde Puffer to try and relive the total boredom of retirement!! I have decided to also to make a CAD model of the Puffer, I have some experience with CAD but none with Lofting or Surface modeling. I have a rather rubbishy set of plans for a "Lockinvar" Clyde Puffer which I have duly chopped up and placed in the respective X,Y and Z planes. I have made a couple of attempts at Lofting some profiles but maybe someone would be so kind as to suggest what the "correct" steps from my base drawings would be.
Thanks,
Steve

Hello everyone My day to day job is architecture but in my youth I built a few ships including Cutty sark, Victory, and Aurora cruiser from Paper ( from Maly Modelarz ) Now things are slowing down so I have a bit more time. Last year I saw a steam pinnace - Janet at Portsmouth Royal Navy...

Look at FreeCad, it's totally free and comparable with the likes of Solidworks and AutoCad. Plus there are tons of beginners courses on YouTube including lofts and surfaces

Or look at Fusion360, also free and very good once you learn the ropes.
