Warning: small mistakes in the measurements.

Recently I have managed to open the SH5 ships' 3D models in my modeling program (3DS max).
The measures I have taken to date, with which I've made the list, were observed with the "Granny Viewer", from the company that owns the graphical format used by SH5.

Well, now that I have done a much more exhaustive measurements through my modeling program, I have found and confirmed a bug in "Granny Viewer" that distorts the measures displayed by it.

Although the errors discovered so far are no more than 9 cm. for the length of the ship or 30 cm. for the height of the mast, you need to know it.
I would like the final measurements were very accurate and, therefore, will need to modify the list as soon as I end with assisting in the grids testing. I will let TheDarkWraith to know that the list will be modified.

As an example, the NAMC_Penguin ship differences:

Measures in the current list, in meters:

Length = 156.189 (Correct = 156.103)
Height = 43.98 (Correct = 43.66)
Draft = 8.7 (Correct = 8.67)
Mast Heigth = 35.28 (Correct = 34.99)
