Don't feel bad. I wasn't in on the design phase that much. Jim Morrison was our structural engineer and project leader on that one. We discussed the design among each other and I looked over some of his drawings, but that was about it. Then one of our draftsmen, Lee Upshaw (who owns The Scale Shipyard that builds fiberglass hulls for model builders) just off the cuff mentioned what class of German Zestroyer used that hull design. I think he even has a mold for it.
After the shipyard closed, Jim did not transfer to another government design agency. Instead he went on to become a Christian Minister.
