So here are some Warships funnel heights. Stock figures are removed since it doesn't offer anything other than the tallest mast height.

As I've stated before, at an average distance of 1200 yards, 1 meter difference in height will produce about 50 yards difference in range. The further away you are the greater the inaccuracy. This occurs no matter where you place the Stadimeter as long as it relates to the correct spot the
Ship_Name.cfg mast height figure is calculated for.

Yes, that's right. As long as the "mast height" figure in the "
ship_name.cfg" file relates to a spot on the ship that is calculated for accuracy the position that you place the Stadimeter must use that spot for accurate range finding. Unfortunately, the game only recognizes one spot.
