Hi;

 I saw this on the Abandoned show on the Telly . Seems to me that kind of monitor should be available in model form . She is certainly different from run of the mill ships .

    Can you imagine back in the 1800s ( Late ) and she could take on 140 tons of water to make sure only the citadel and guns were the only things above the water , Oh The stack was too .

 I would love to have it on the shelf next to my C.S.S. Virginia and My H.M.S. Dreadnaught !     T.B.       P.S. although British built , there must be some info available somewhere !
