VERY nice... excellent little harbor patrol craft.
I'd put a couple of torps on her, though... just for some sting.

Great!

[Tanthalas]

not a bad little ship.  I may have to consider somthing along these lines if i continue to build my 10" cruisers.

[The Rock Doctor]

A .361 block co-efficient is too low for any vessel - something in the 0.40 to 0.43 range might be appropriate for a small, fast-ish boat.

I'd recommend more bunkerage - change your cruising speed to 25 knots in SS and see how much range you have with the existing load.  Probably not much.  I'd suggest ~1000 nm or so.

Edit:  But I like the concept, don't get me wrong...

[Sachmle]

Larger BC + more range, check.
