Ahoy mates.
It has been a long time since I’ve managed to put together an MOC, I guess it
was a lack-of-time induced dark age, but I have finally put a little
something together.
The first production from the yards of Port Olympic, The Corinthian became
the flagship of the...well...soon-to-be fleet. The Admiral (if he can be
called that with one ship), Zale Alexander, was pleased with the firepower of
the ship yet the agility the shorter style allowed (at a slight lack for
speed).
Boasting an 11 cannon broadside, the ship is more than capable of filling its
current role of patrol, as it is the size of both the famed Black Seas
Barracuda and Skull’s Eye Schooner. When the time comes, it will be very fit
for it’s diplomatic (to a point) roll of sailing around and showing off
itself to other armies in the neighboring waters.
Hope you all enjoy! Any comments or thoughts are welcome.

Nice work, Sean!
It’s great to see a solid vessel like this in .pirates! (And probably time to
get the old spyglass out of retirement).
Two decks is very cool indeed. And two masts, for a vessel this length is just
right.
Did you consider building some tumblehome (inward slope toward the deck) into
the hull? It’s often an issue of parts availability, and it does eat into deck
space, but if you can manage it, the effect can look pretty good.
Your admiral certainly has spacious quarters for a vessel this size.
Cheers
