Doesn't matter, you can measure anything you know the height of. You could even use the men on deck, or a lifeboat, gunturret, whatever.

However, if using the mastheight from the rec manual, measure from the waterline. That'll probably be the most used source since it's the only one provided with the game.

I would like to replicate that for my mod.
Periscope_Mask_1024_SH5.dds in data\menu\skins\german\gui\layout.

Added a layer to the image, pasted it with a highly transparent color, moved layer to bottom and merged. Saved as .dds with DXT5.
