have to lose the swallows nest guys. why? because she didn't have the nest during her 72' cruise. she had and all gun aft section like the Ranger. so i have to rebuild that bulkhead again and rebuild the portside aft sponson for the 5"/54 single mounts. d'oh!

some photos how the guns look on the starboard side.
