I am looking for a yacht, boat or car I guess, of reasonable quality. I need to convert it to STL and my only tools so far are Blender and Meshlab, but i'm sure I will be able to convert most file-types with the right open source software.

Thanks all for any help!

Free would be best, this isn't for commercial use.

Free - not sure.... I usually pick up bits and bobs from the support side of the Solidworks site (though we've dropped support for a while, so that's dried up), and have paid real-cash-money for the specific models (I think a surface map of the statue of Eros was ~£70 - don't ask.....).

Maybe try some of the specialist forums for a favour - eng-tips.com is usually pretty active/helpful.

There's oodles of free stuff on the [url= http://sketchup.google.com/intl/en/product/3dwh.html ]Sketchup Warehouse[/url] site - mostly user generated so of massively variable quality/accuracy/scale though.
