Does anyone know of a central store for yacht plans? Not just the line drawing that can be seen online, but the manufacturing drawings which would show the layout, for example, of the bulkheads?

I have approached Dehler, but got the simple line drawings...

Thanks for any help.

I believe you'll need to contact designer of specific model and beg him to go through his files.
 
Generally such build plans are treated with fairly tight security, as they are intellectual property (in some cases they contain enough information to build a new boat), and are owned by the builder or designer, not by the owner of the boat. In my experience getting hold of plans from designers and builders is a bit like getting blood out of a stone, but best of luck!
