What´s that gun on the bow? It looks like a MBT-gun with too small turret.. You might not get enough elevation or space for a autoloader...
How about you read the specs to find out what kind of gun it is?

This just looks like it has too much sheer to the bow, something "off" to it if you know what I mean. :S

What do you mean by sheer, English isn't my first language and I don't know what you mean. Do you mean it's too pointy that the angle is too big?

Yes I have read them now, and it´s a dual-purpose 127 mm gun. But it seems very cramped to be dual-purpose. I would prefer it to elevate higher, and have more space inside for both the gun and maintenance. It really suck to try do repairs if you cant hardly move and turn inside the turret. Especially in hight seas...

Otherwise you´ve made really nice ships. Keep on...

It's fine, it means the bow is too pointy. I think. :P

Yeah I know it's pretty pointy but I just love that look. It's a design compromise for aesthetics.

No it's not, vrijboord means freeboard.
