HMCS Morden.
So I think I might name my boat the Morden  . |
Update.
I'm making serious progress on my boat. I need to post the pictures I've taken, plus take new ones, but I can't find my camera atm
.
I've got my brass prop
installed, custom made brass rudder installed, motor installed (English made motor
), Some of the wood/balsa deck installed,
In regards to the name of the boat, I'm still thinking of the Morden, but she has 2 masts
(one forward of the bridge) and her 4inch gun doesn't have the gun shield.

I could do the HMS Arbutus (killer of the U-70 or U-47) or the HMCS Chilliwack (2 u-boat kills)
