Excellent at demonstrating stress points. 0.8 nozzle comparing largest and smallest layer sizes on a dual color filament.

Saucy. I prefer this to the original, seems a more robust model, and with no errors in the STL like the original. Also, it's very much inkeeping with the spirit of the original, such that from a distance it's pretty hard to tell it from an original. Also clearly the best thing is that this boat has a bench for the pilot to sit on. Bravo! (edited)
I understand you wanted to differentiate from the original, but one of the windows should remain square to test bridging. Alternatively, railing may be added to test that. Bow might be a bit steeper, with recent printers improving steep overhang angles. If you inversed its curve, it would make clear distinction from the benchy, while also working as an indicator of maximum overhang angle.
@HonzaP_226225 You're right. V2 is coming soon. This time will be very different from the original but with a lot more benchmarking stuff.
Add something on the base to test 1st layer
@SantiagoMonet_414688 I like the 1st layer blank because it gives you a clear view of how the layer actually went down pretty fast
@SantiagoMonet_414688 V2 coming soon with first layer test.
I love the idea of a Benchy never being printed ever again. I hope your model becomes the new standard. How do we get Bambu to quit preloading the Benchy model on their SD cards?
Printed with a .6 nozzle at .3mm layer height. Came out great! Thanks for the open source vessel! (edited)
