Finished design with all the modifications should be posted later today.

not bad. the only real problem you have now, is that the funnel blocks the I-mast radar. it mayb not be higher then the goalkeeper's gun.

It's most definitely getting there. From a personal perspective I'd possibly split the funnels port and starboard and lower them suitably too.

I went with Blackbuck's suggestion and split the funnels and lowered them. It just seemed to look better.

I was just looking at the shaft and propeller, it seems to have a downward angle. Would this not result in the propulsion trying to lift the stern upwards and driving the bow downwards? My experience is limited to power trims on sport fishing boats but the results of trimming in and out would apply here I think.

The arrangement here is almost exactly the same as the one on the Perry-class Guided Missile Frigate, and those ships never had that problem.

Just an observation on my part but if it's part of an in service vessel then ignore my observation. The effects must decrease as the hull size scales up?
Otherwise it looks good! I see it as a fast patrol with frigate capabilities

That's pretty much what I was going for.

If anything, this would be moderately beneficial - a ship of this configuration and power level tends to 'squat' and trim by the stern at high power. Remember that this is a displacement hull, and the usual planing rules do not apply.
