My sources deep inside Collin's Shipyard organization are reporting a new vessel on the ways... Lips Sealed

I'm not sure what she is, but perhaps one of you naval afficianados will be able to ID her...however, I should mention she is a WIP. Undecided

You win third place by knowing she's a destroyer! Smiley

Now here's a hint....she is the last of the WWII US destroyer classes. Lips Sealed

Yep, she is the USS Gearing, DD-710, the lead ship in the last class of US destroyers serving in WWII. Smiley

This was the end of the Fletcher saga. Fletchers were widened and had dual 5" turrets added to give us the Allen Sumner class. The Sumners had 14 feet added to their center hull to provide more fuel bunker space and add range. Cool

She appears here as she was in 1945.

Collin has once again gotten off his meds and slaved throughout the night to finish the new masterpiece from The Shipyard. Smiley

Get the fantasmagorically exciting DD-710 USS Gearing now and be the first on your block with this hot new toy. Cheesy

These persnickity artistic types! Shocked

Collin has got a version 2.0 out already. This may constitute webmaster abuse, as I just got finished posting the first one and fixing the links....now I've had to do it all over again. Grin

Anyhow....he 'toned her sheen a bit'...whatever that means???? She does look a lot better.... Kiss
