[]Good luck Paul. Pointer Hang on to the bow and just turn your rudders first to check for binding. Then turn on the fwd throttle and turn your rudders left and right to see how they work. Then drive it a little near the shoreline but not too far in case the rudder jams.
I am going to keep this thread going for Yamato. UPDATE: The Accumulator or expansion tank whatever you want to call it has arrived today with the valves. I will be commencing sometime very soon with installation of the 2 cannons for the sidemounts. Then on water gunnery testing of the Tripple sidemounts. Yamato will be first ship under a new Combat format. It will be class 9 - 10 units. Looking forward to seeing the splashes.
