(...) Hate to disagree but the blue section looks flat to me, the raised part on the left of the 'water' looks like it is the same height right to the back of the blue area. Also if you look closely the blue area has Lego pips on it which sloping (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general, lugnet.pirates)

| | Tipee tent poles ?
|

Hello Has anyone tried using the long brown tent poles from the Indian Tipees (wig-wams) as spars for pirate ships ? They look like the "towballs" could be used to hold the sails. Henrik (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Looking at the grainy scan I thought that the blue section was flat and not a ramp like in the sets you point out. Upon closer inspection I can clearly see that you are right and I am just a Pirate-wishing fool. Although it will still make a (...)
