When producing mega-yachts, high quality is required for their surface finish. Because of the relatively high shipbuilding tolerances, all outer surfaces in the above-water area of the yacht are smoothened andpolished prior to the application of finishing coat of lacquer. The surface deviations have sofar but insufficiently been registered by means ofsimple testing instruments (sheer lath, ruler). In order to register the surface deviations on a large scale, 3-D laser scanners are suitable. The measurements carried out with their help are intended to reduce the amount ofputty required by decreasing the thickness ofthe putty layer. Furthermore, an objective evaluation method ofthe surface deviations is being described by which a surface-covering numerical description of the deviations is carried out.
