Hi!
I made a minor change {{convert|35|ft|m}} to {{convert|35|ft|0|in|m}} in order to avoid a rounding of the measurement in metres. (reverted by
North8000). I admit in code this change looks inconsequential, but in the conversion it makes a real difference
old, 0.20m difference:
new. 0.53m difference:

Trublu: I reverted only for the noted reasons....it was unexplained and also it conflicted with your own edit summary. You said you were modifying the stern numbers while you actually modified (only) the bow numbers. With your further note, you are replacing 35 feet (which presumably came from the source and implies the normal level of uncertainty) with 35 feet 0 inches which adds an unsourced more precise measurement and and unsourced smaller level of uncertainty. Sincerely, North8000 (
