What ship did you pattern her on? Looks very British indeed... at this late
hour the quality can best be described as ineffible –– it just smacks of
Royal Navy character.
Revenge is a fantastic little ship too, though I am rather concerned that
Port Brique is selling its splendid ships to known pirates... :-)

That was an adminstrative oversight. You know French beaurocracy....
Interestingly, the Royal Navy has just hung a ‘For Sale’ sign on the HMLS
Intractable. With a bigger British Flagship due in the South Pacific soon, they
find the Sloop-of-war surplus to requirements.
Learning from the French, the Brikkish are vetting potential buyers very
closely.

Then again, I’ve built schooners for privateers... and now I’m in the middle
of building an outport town-fort for them...
|
Sounds promising.

Port Brique remains a leader in ship building. One is left to ask ‘what
next?’ and wait expectantly!
|
The HMLS Frivolous (1), a sixth rater (four centre sections), is due within
the next couple of months. She is destined to be the Brikkish Flagship in the
South Pacific.
