Rule Number One:
Galors are HUGE. They have never been portrayed at 371m to my knowledge. They started out being designed at 481m for "The Wounded", but every time I've seen them next to the Defiant they are 600m long or so, even when the ship is taken as 100m. And I don't even want to try to work out the size of that Galor chasing Chakotay's raider (assuming the thing is 70-80m long). Yes, they would have huge decks but DS9 has 20' decks as well, so this isn't a problem.
I don't care if the majority of visual evidence happens to contradict the official figures despite of this (with the exception of DS9, of course), as long as we keep it at one size for the V-ship and one size for the other one. Given the Galor-thing above I have a feeling the ship is closer to the official value, and a window examination will probably support the answer.

Ok, this off on some really fXXXed up tangent, but you are telling me that the beast of a 12-1600 meter Jem battleship was built in less than three years, and a Galaxy takes ten years to build? Bear's head really hurt...the war is over....pack your bags boys.
