I just ran my program for my 9.2in/50 gunned cruiser

It is a little problemmatic to try and build a spec for a ship without a drawing, but I did it anyway. The Washington Naval Treaty Standard displacement was 16,036 tons. I was able to give the ship 9-9.2in/50 and 8-4.7in/50 guns, a 6in belt, a 3in deck, and 32 knots of speed. The normal displacement ended up as 17,861 tons. The dimensions are 670ft x 75ft x 23.6ft. The coefficients are Cp=0.585 and Cm=0.9. The ship is flush-decked with a 120,000 SHP machinery plant.
