SSBN USS George Washington

Anyone know the dimensions of the sail on the SSBN George Washington? If you have the Yankee Modelworks or the older cut away version and could measure from those that would work okay too.

Thanks

Art,

 

The top of the Revell sail measures 1.831" or a nominal 476" long. That would scale out to 6.612" in 1/72

THe Revell kit has always looked about 3-4' too short to me tho.

 

The real one is in New London... ROADTRIP!!!

I took a swag using a picture and came up with 42' long by 18' tall. Not sure about the width but guess it to be about 9' at the widest point. The 42' seem to match up pretty well with what you came up with.

 

Roadtrip is out but still hoping some ex-coner will chim in and confirm.
