Those with the 1905 engine technology will appreciate that I increased the Max Shaft Power for the technology from 4000 to 5000HP - pimarily in order not to decrease the speed of my destroyer design  ;), secondarily  to decrease the gap between this and the following technology (or should I switch the priorities? bah!).
But we all know how off SS speed estimates are for small crafts. And thanks for Rock Doctor for pointing out my mistake in the design.

1895 Baseline(0): Complex Reciprocating Engines, Engine Year 1900
1902 Advanced (+1): Engine year 1905, Max. Turbine power 5000HP/Shaft,
        Direct-drive Turbines
1905 Cutting Edge (+3) Engine year 1909, Max. Turbine power 12000HP/Shaft

Added some BB design guidelines.
Advanced BB techs allows you to design ships with turret arrangement with wing turrets and superfiring 'X'. This arrangement, however, won't allow X to fire end-on over Y, due to the not fully closed sighting hoods.. It was only done to reduce armored citadel length.
