    if you look at the ship list http://www.modelwarshipcombat.org/shiplist.shtml you would see that the Florida is there. but its a class 4 with 4 units and is 58" long and speed is 28 so problay not very manuverable so other than if you really like this ship i dont think it would make a good combat ship but i could be wrong

    Personaly i think the ship looks very nice. but definately a scratch build job... unless someone sells a kit for it...

    I do not think anyone makes a Flordia.

    It has only a single rudder, and would not manuver well.

    For a 1st ship, I would suggest not doing a ship on the extreams-
    So stay away from those extreamly small, slow or large.

    While most ships can be built and battled with some degrees of success, a rookie is likly to have therir hads full learning the ropes, without extra challanges.

    For a first ship, you are probably going to be best served with a Von der Tann, Moltke, Invincible or Indefatigable. 4 unit battlecruiser and 26 seconds all. For ease of building, I'd probably pick Moltke and Indefatigable as the picks of the litter.
