My latest attempt at the Ger/CL/1914 (a2)

I found my drawing of the Ger/CL/1914 from 2002, and decided to try again at using Springsharp. The ship is 430ft x 40ft x 17ft, and was intended to make 32 knots. The armament was 9-5in QF guns and 2-21in TT. The ship has a raised forecastle (at 35% of the length) and has three uncased funnels. The foremast and mainmast are both poles, with a crow's nest on the foremast. The aft 5in guns are superfiring on my drawing. There are 3-5in guns on each side with the rest on the centerline. The ship is relatively fast and a good seaboat. This is the report:
