    I think that’s the hull you can kit bash into a Figi.

    Kent is flush decked.
    Looks like Arethusa/Dido

    That is a possibility, could also be Exeter. @Bob Pottle can you confirm? I think it is one of your molds. Maybe @Lou could post measurements?

    It's not one of mine. From the white gelcoat and color of the fiberglass it looks like a Strike Models hull.

    It's not a Fiji hull - Fiji has a transom stern.

    I think it's the Arethusa; NABS member Rob Clarke made the mold and sold it years ago, possibly to Rich Wands of the OAF.

    The Arethusa hull appeared on the Strike website simultaneously with the Espana and Courageous Class hulls. I'd made the Espana and Courageous molds and sold them to Rich.

    It’s a Strike HMS Exeter.

    Thought about building York for years but realized the aft turret is too far ahead of the stern to get a good down angle.
