The minerails can load 120mines (2x 60), normally mines wouldn't be carried, nut if necessary the can be fitted. The mine rail can also be used for loading depth charges if necessary. It is kind of a Swiss army knife fitting for loading round stuff on deck.

My first sketch/ outline of the ship

Coming along nicely, my only question would be do you need as much space for B gun (the raised side guns suggest not, or can you move the bridge forward and make more room for you AA guns)(IMO all the main gun gaps look big but that might be good for dispersing them for protection).

I would also be interested how you have arranged the TR/BRs and main gun mags ? just looks tight unless you have trunked the rear funnel rearward will the TRs fit?
