Started my Duca D Acosta build at teds house today. Figured since we where setting water lines and weights for the ships we did my Zboat to. The Duca is a strike kit supposed to be a weekend build. I like to see if anyone else has built one of these. maybe what there layout looks like inside for ideas same goes for the Zboat. I’m not in a rush just ideas. The Z boat was started like 10years ago I was in my 20ties not sure what I was up to but it’s been in the attic since. Lots of marker marks lol
I have one duca built. Nasty boat with quad half unit Stern's. I think I put pictures in one of the duca threads and some 3d printed bits in resources. Keep duca light. When I went from normal to 3d printed guns and dropped a ton of weight she ran much better

Been a heck of a time since an update. Took a bit to cut the hull windows. Working on mounting the guns so far so good space is a bit limited.
Yes duel bows but she will also have duel sterns also. I couldn’t make my mind up lol so I will be able to have the option for both.
I strongly recommend weighing her with everything inside at this point prior to doing anymore work. Make sure your dry CG is at least in the neighborhood of the center of buoyancy for the hull. Make sure you meet your weight target
