I think the original tank test model was 9/10 of an inch equals one foot. But it would not have had as big a rudder and the width of the keel may have been narrower.
Some will tell me I'm wrong any minute now.[B)]

Joe.. My friend... you are right on with your answer! 9/10ths of an inch per foot. The rudder was about half the size we use and had an angle on the trailing edge (narrower at the top) DB
