    I won't mention how many times I backed up and then realized yet again no Sterns...

    new rudder is done along with a pair of breeches, one a few degrees down angle but full forwards, the other 14 degrees to stbd from dead aft this will just clear the superstructure. I aim to see if this off stern stern is less silly than the bows, and since changing is a 5 minute swap... if I don't like it I have the slightly down angled bows to go. I really like how the propulsion module turned out. it ended up being really easy to seal and then open up for service....

    Where do you load them at? and do you use 1 solenoid per gun or one solenoid for both?

    They load under the silver turret and I used one solenoid per barrel. I have generally had good luck running up to two barrels off one solenoid but tuning it is a lot more difficult so if I can fit two I will do so

    And now for details. I will do details this way more often. one base layer and print all the details on it then glue to ship.

    All right, well the offset Stern was less fun than expected. That was hard to line up. Next up offset bow.
