If I put a mast in between the the front guns would that work?

NO, NO and NO! then you are blocking both your bridge, your director, your guns and...... well, I stop saying things here. I gave you perfect options for the arrangement, and if you don't even consider them, I can better say nothing.

I think he means that she is not intended for any role other than combat in fleets... which changes little...

she is not. if you want an hell of an broadside, you'll want the setup of the italian dante alighiery. why she is not optimised for broadsides? because she has turrets at the side of the ship, while broadsides are best done with centerline turrets. right now you have an setup where in almost every angle, at least 2 turrets can't be used.

You want to optimize not your broadside only but all over, as rarely do targets miraculously appear off your beam

yep :D now it actually looks quite good. the only thing you have to do now is detail, and of course add an mast/fighting top somewhere abouve the bridge instead of the flagpole you have now, and the ships boats.
the best example I can give is the HMS dreadnought itself, drawn by jabba
