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.

Thanks. I had wanted to make a ship on par with others around (like yours for example) that I have seen for a long time, but I haven’t had the time.

I’m also happy to see that two masts looks good, I had been thinking of adding a third but decided against it.

   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.

I actually had thought of that (without knowing the name for it haha) but I got tired of looking for the right color slopes. I may have to try that on my next project however.

   Your admiral certainly has spacious quarters for a vessel this size.

Cheers

Well you know, he did have a say in construction. ; )

God Bless, Sean
