  1. I'm sure there are many accounts. we will never know what was done in the heat of battle. decisions had to be made......whether it was to drop and fix the tiller lines, moving the aft most guns to the stern.......or if guns were even mounted there at all. from the different accounts found in books, to the model manufacturers adding them in to make the kit more interesting........we build as we see them.
