I would say the Tesla looks like a Tesla, and the Bavaria looks like a Bavaria.

No matter what angle a photo is taken its a straight line between center of the transom, the hole for the rudder stock, and the keel on the boat, if one point was out of position it would be a dog leg.
I can scarcely believe I'm reading this :). Red line in post #38 is simply incorrect.
The very first picture in post #1: rudder stock =a foot to starboard of the boat's centreline.
Anyways, giving up here :)

I agree, something is very distorted in that area. Plus the rudder has miraculously got right inside the car without damaging the bonnet.

The bit I don't understand is the Tesla's anti collision device system not being programmed for boats.
That would be some complex programming since they would need some sort of audio sensors to detect shouts of "Starboard" in addition to the proximity detection systems that are already on the car. They would also have to be careful with the international buoyage programming so that the Teslas don't drive on the "wrong" side of channels when they cross to North America.
