Loved these little DE's. I drilled on one back in the day, Whitehurst, which was built side by side with England and was one hull number off. I scratch built a 1:515 version as well as a 1:144, both using 3D printing. Acquiring a wild hair I decided to build a 1:515 version of England, for which I'll have to design a 1.1 quad to replace the 40 Quad that Whitehurst had. Both were hit by Kamikazes in the bridge, W-Hurst was repaired and returned to combat, England was not.
