You've seen the pictures, here's a video of the monster.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjIqJWGAKwk
That's cool, but mostly just nerdy. Don't believe I could actually bring myself to drive it in public.
I'd be scaring the hell out of those other people on the water.... Guess it's a good thing I don't have one of those! ... and black powder [}]
Naw, just having turrents that rotated and pitched would scare people, but black powder might land you in jail (but be really awesome too)
On a somewhat related note, I found another large scale model on youtube. And I thought I was a Lego master in my younger years! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVEuVxa4ZB0

Years ago, wooden boat magazine had an article about a 38 foot Arizona that someone in TX owned and it made the trip by water from TX to New York City for the birthday of the Statue of Liberty celebration. It mentioned that he had two more West Virginia Class boats at home. It visited Washington, and Baltimore on its way north. Marty
Hey Marty, Remember the guy that sold RC ships under the name "Super Ships"? Had a pic of the gun standing in front of a carrier kit on a trailor. Bob
Yeah, I think he was in Ga. or Fla. He produced "Big Ships" 6 feet long or better. He used to advertize in SSM.
