Auto Credit Based on BlueWhiskySP's Cargo Ship

This a fast response cutter based or off the USCG's fast response 87 ft. cutters. The turning radius is slightly large, you will just have to get used to it, it's the best I can do. The railings and and propellers are mixed blocks, so you can save them to your subassembilys. I hope you enjoy my fast response cutter, which I have named the Sturgeon, for use of patrolling the waters around the islands. Credit to BluewhiskeyYT for the hull. Enjoy and don't forget to upvote if you think it is a good vessel. Thanks for taking the time to look at this.-AeroEngineering

    If you need thin modded fuse blocks just save part if the railings to your subassemblies.

    @BlueWhiskyYT Oh, I almost forgot, the tower doesnt need all of the trusses, just to look realistic. All my attempts at it have looked really strange, like it was melting or something

    @BlueWhiskyYT You cant see it in that picture, but in stern there is a depression in the rear with a RIB that deploys through an opening gate. I dont think I will need help with that, but I might

    fit stabilizers (fueslage blocks) on the sides (0.5W*xH* 5xL*) and set their buoyancy to about 80% and add dead weight (dead weight is now 80% more buoyant with the rest of the piece) and that will act as a stabilizer. and i hope the full finished version will be good when its done

    @BlueWhiskyYT The fist steering apparatus I tried was that, and it did barrel rolls. And I do realize the cockpit is uside down, I had nowhere to hide it. I forget to mention that this is a work in progress.

    its a good design, like the railings. nice small touch i may say. you can improve the turning radius by attaching the propellors to a rotator which in turn is basically vector thrust. one thing about it is the cockpit is upside-down. still nice though.
