Need help with patches from intersection curves

Question

Hello guys,

so I am currently working on a boat design.

I wanted to reverse engineer my boat by taking a 3d scan and using the bottom and side view of the scan in fusion to recreate the shape.

First i did the side and then with projections points the bottom view.

Then i used the intersection curve function to create the exact curves that should make the patches later.

Now i am ready doing the intersection part and tried to create the patches. But the program does not let me create them. I watched videos and searched in the internet but i could not solve my problem. Also there was the idea that maybe i cant use the intersection curves directly and that they are not aligned. But i can also not find a function to create a 3d sketch curve by that.

Does anyone of you have an idea what's wrong or how i should proceed further?

Thank you in advance!
