Come a Cropper

I have got a bit stuck and am going to have to start again on the hull I still want to do it the same size and may still be able to use the base plate.
The problem is going to be housing the internal workings and being able to put the internal details in as well.
The batteries and running gear is going to take up approx half the length which will help with ballast but the motor and steering gear is going to sit to high not allowing me to put any detail inside.
So the plan is to lay it out and build up from the floor similar to the real thing and try to if poss build the hull out of ally plate but for now its back to the drawing board and I am going to do this project cos its got me a bit hooked now.
