Smoothing advice? Updated

Thanks Elesei. I'll try that and post the results in a few days. (I did not download the model, but I very much appreciate you making it available.)
Also thanks to everyone else for their help and advice!

Working almost prefect. Except... what the heck is that?

See the hidden geometry, most likely an edge snapped.

There is something. If I recall well, you have there a small segment that creates a small crease throughout the body. If you remove that segment I believe it will be alright.
It doesn't matter how far the sections are it will create the same amount of segmentation. -

Thanks Elisei. I did look at the hidden the geometry but I did not see anything obvious.
I think I may have the 2 vertical sections just slightly too far apart. I'm going to try moving them closer together and see what happens.

After much playing around and thanks to everyone's advice, here's what I ended up and pretty much exactly what I wanted.

I think you will find the remaining 'lines' around the hull are bulkheads, they can be deleted to improve the shape further.

Thanks, yes, that's exactly what they are.

Here's how the shape is evolving.
