I'm back!

I'm still doing research and gathering resources for this next big project of mine, and if everything works out, I hope to start on it sometime this Fall.
But first, a few questions and pictures.

One major thing I've been thinking about is the ship's boats. The U.S. Navy MERCY class hospital ship has roughly 10 lifeboats, 3-6 RHIB's, 2-3 personnel/utility boats, and numerous liferafts.

Now for an LHD amphibious hospital ship I'm making, large amounts of cargo and patients can be recieved via the well deck by LCAC, LCM, LCU, etc. But what about having regular boats for transfers, emergencies, etc.? How many should I have and where should I put them?
* I've got about 12 different boats as shown in Pic # 1.
* Pic # 2 shows the balconies/sponsons and the limited davits/cranes I have to put on the sides of the ship's hull.
* Pic #'s 3 and 4 show possible locations (Red boxes) where I was thinking of putting extra balconies/sponsons along the sides of the hull for extra small boats.
* Normally, the rear of an LHD above the well deck gate is where a Seasparrow launcher and 2 CIWS's are located. I was thinking of using this area instead to put some RHIB's and ship's boats.

* The worst thing about all this is that I don't have enough davits and cranes to put near all the boats.
