I think I already know the answer to these questions, but I'm hoping I'm
wrong:
It seems like the pirate-ship masts go together only one way: base-mast,
octagonal "crow's nest" platform, then the upper-mast. Is there any other
useful way to put these pieces together?
Also (or more to the point), is there any way to vary the height of the
masts, other than building taller/shorter bases for the masts to stand on?

The tallest mast I use on the Agamemnon starts with the tall mast base, a main mast, the the smallest of the top mast, to which I have attached (...) (25 years ago, 10-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
