I would contact Tony Constantino at Harbour Lights in Maine. Tony is the one that you need to convince that a 180' WLB is the way to go for one of the next Anchor Bay releases. In fact, the 180' WLB is one of my suggestions for future lighthouses and ships that Tony asked the Forum Members to provide to him, about 2 weeks ago in the WISH LIST Forum un the "Hell hath no Fury--------" subject. I was the one that originally asked Tony to produce a older WHEC and hense, the Taney was made. Give Tony some ammo and reasons to produce a 180' WLB and you may be surpised at what happens. Your idea of interchangeable names and hull numbers is a good one but may be cost prohibitive. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained. I wouldn't wait to submit your idea and reasons as planning is now going on for production in the coming year or beyond. Tony's email address is tconstantino@harbourlights.com.
