+ECplus3 Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 HMCS Huron (DDH 281) WINNER #2!!! That's the other RE edition! Congrats dimkasmir!!! Time for a hint, I think! There are four ships left. One was the only ship of its class fitted with landing decks One was named for the shipyard where it was built One was featured in a Tony Curtis movie One was (in)famous for an incident at Nanjing Oh, and the sea cadet squadron didn't have a lot of water to work with. The first 'ship' was in the basement of the town post office. It then moved to the Seperate School auditorium, Town Hall, the Masonic Lodge, and the High School gym -- all quite waterless.
