Thanks, Scott. I'm glad that you like it.

It is almost finished. I've set it on the water base. Still need to rig it and add a couple of inclined ladders and finish up the water.

[NukeMM]

Well, this one is all done, now.

That is a beautiful rendition. I was a civilian aboard for many trips in the late '80's and early 90's.

Thank you very, much! I'm so, happy that you like it and that it has provoked some recollections, for you.

I was stationed on the ship 1985 to 1988 as a Radioman.
Great model. You questioned a certain piece of structure that was sitting on the roof of the hangar bay. If memory serves me correctly, it was simply a flat bottom boat that the Boatswain Mates used for various maintenance chores along the water line (painting, scuppers, etc.) and was not a "permanent" fixture.
