If you raise steadiness to 50%, the seakeeping will marginally improve. Not all the way to 1.00, but it'll be better.
I like it, actually. A bit heavy (and therefore expensive), but quite good overall.

Well, the ship is at the edge to a light cruiser. She´s expensive. Her best feature is her speed, making sure she can evade superior forces.
So splinter protection to her engines might not be too bad an idea...

I always go for better sea keeping.

I take issue with the term "Large Destroyer". That thing's fifty feet longer than a Capitani Romani-class!

Interesting ship.
Basically the same weapons fit as my Z82 class, 2kts faster on 500t more. Seakeeping might be good down at 34kts, but I bet the range @15kts is lower. 8500@15 and good seaboats at speed were design requirements for me.
However it suggest if I expand the Z82s a tad, I can pick up a knot or two, which would let them work as DDLs as well.

Where would you put 4 twin 55mm mounts, all on the centerline, on this vessel? I can see 1 mounted in Q position, at the forward end of the aft superstructure, maybe 1 each on bandstands aft of the two stacks (above the torpedo banks), but where's the 4th one?

GUess it´s time to learn to draw them yourself - or at least make reasonable sketches. It´s not that difficult. :o)

A 40mm Bofors quad weighted about 11 tons (without shield). A 55mm twin mounts might be in the same range. That has to be kept in mind.
Edit: The historical French 57mm twin mounts weighted between 16 and 23 tons - but those were enclosed mounts.

Currently she can get like 7000 @ 15 and sea boat quality of 1.04. Good enough for me already.
