Craig,
Honest, open discussions require no apologies. There is plenty of room for
alternate ideas which should be welcome to all. Please continue to ask
questions and suggest holes within any argument since that is the way to new
understanding.
The ideas being explored in this exercise might find application in other
areas. Space and time dilation might be involved in LENR activity according to
some researchers.

I apologize for correcting you. I didn't read your whole post. I think
you have it right.

Steven,
The hypothetical ship is undergoing an acceleration of 10 "G's".
This is determined by an accelerometer on board that is quite
accurate. If this level of acceleration is applied for the 1 year
period, then I can calculate that my resulting velocity would be
approximately 10 times c greater than the initial velocity of the
ship.
As a ship approaches the speed of light, its mass increases such
that any force being used to accelerate it would be applied to a
growing mass. At the speed of light, the theoretical mass of the ship
becomes infinite, preventing any further increase in speed.
