Two suggestions, Grissom:

1: Always start a fresh thread for stumpers. Hijacking an existing one (on the first reply, no less) isn't a preferable option for most here.

2: Rename your cut jpegs. This one says "tb5c-submergable hydrofoil".

Just sayin'. :)

I was thinking the same but the stern seems ... dunno ... modified. Post refit? Didn't realize it would be so drastic, if so.
