I'm glad to see that you are undertaking this project. Everything looks shipshape so far.

The balsa should provide for a smooth hull, although as evidence that full-sized ships are not immune from waving hull plating, I submit this image of the Liberty Ship SS John W. Brown, aboard which I had the pleasure to travel on the Chesapeake Bay last Saturday. Of course, armored hulls may be somewhat less susceptible to this sort of dishing.
