I used to advise folks that heraldry was like jewelry. It wasn't about how much you put on, but rather how much you could leave off and still achieve the desired effect.

If you can live without the lion, something you might want to consider is that the lymphad would better fill the space under the chevron; that being the case a third fleur-de-lys could be added to the chevron.

Just a thought....
I am quite fond of the lion, but not wedded to the idea by any means; and I see that the galley is a bit small...

I like this one as well, though MoR's feedback has got me thinking of a couple other things to try.
