Even more so since you need to figure out which one your talking about
:o)

The book version was more a marine raider carrier. I recall two
retrieval 
boats mentioned, and not much more than a reinforced company aboard. 

Now the movie/CGI series Rodger Young, (correct spelling at least as far
as 
the book was concerned :o) seemed to be the size of a battlewagon. At
LEAST 
battleship size if not a dreadanought. I'm not sure if the book ever
went 
into any details, but I seem to recall a cylndrical hull, flattened and 
flared at the aft end for the drives. The movie/CGI series looked more
like 
one of the UN battlecraft from FT. Hope that helps.
