    I like the 2.5 unit light cruisers, like the Fiji. I always wanted a small simple ship, with a .5 pump and 2 stern guns, running at 23 seconds. I have always liked them.

    Hey Boomer if that is what you want to do I say go for it. My father served aboard a uganda when she was in Canadian servce as HMCS Quebec. He said she was a fine ship.

    Yea, but she is only allowed 8.5 lbs, which wont be easy. so i might save it for a second build. Also, no one makes a hull for it, so i would have to make my own; i dont know if i could find and use plans well enough to get it done. If only some one had the plans and could post them, so that any one could print them off on and 8x11 standard piece of paper and have the ribs they need.
