Another Ted Turner production you might like is Ironclads.

It too has a lot of flaws, but the models are wonderful.

Thanks Sailor Steve. I remember seeing Ironclads when it was first aired but must admit that I don't recall too much about it. Not the greatest reviews but still, a interesting battle that I should try to watch again.

Just curious about the historical reasons you refer to for "The Hunley"? Being Canadian, I'm not that familiar with the Civil War but the IMDB site doesn't have the usual bashing about historical accuracy that you see so often.
