    I know this is a Loooooooong shot, but it's worth a try.
    I'm looking for a ship I built back in 1992. Yeah, it's been a while. She was a good looking ship, very much to scale with lots of detail. One unique thing was the way the deck was held down. I used 4-40 screws with copper tubing to form Bitts. She also has both sets of torpedo tubes amidships. When I sold my Repluse she came with her own carry box with a silhouette of the ship on the each side. She was built with updated torpedo bilges and the inner bottom was filled with resin. The actual bilge pump originally was a VW window washer motor. She came from the South Coast Battle Group. If you know of this ship and particularly if you have pictures I would be very interested in reacquiring this ship if possible.
    THANKS!!
