#11 #24 Such a cool design! I'd be interested in learning the benefits of this design vs. the standard.

Cool design but they have already had a lot of trouble with the fatigue of the aluminum. Twice the price later I hear that have sorted it all out.

I'd still "make it so". All it's missing is a rookie position and comms position. And a crew elevator that feeds directly into the bridge (cuz that makes sense, right?).

Ya build a billion dollar boat and let a woman drive it? You're braver than I thought, US Navy.
