I'll be attending a LUGOLA meeting this coming Saturday and hope (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

thanks for the offer but I don't need the sails. i am making custom sails out of some of my mom's material. i don't need the sails anymore. the aft sail is the sail at the back of the boat, thus aft means the back of the boat, bow means the front. (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Hi Geordan, I am almost sure I have a spare set of sails for this set. I'll check tomorrow. And I can certainly make a scan for you, no problem. What do you like most? Real sail(s) or scan? I can make you a scan tomorrow evening, buying/trading the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Can someone scan me the aft sail that comes in set 6271? I am making custom sails for a boat and I need the shape and size of that sail. I have the set but I lost that sail. My boat should be posted in about a week. thanx Geordan (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Hi, It's Jono....I try to introduce a relatively interesting topic (6286 vs. 6285), and where does it lead?? A string of messages about the spelling of a word! Shhesh, I'm about ready to give up....lol......cheers, Jono (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Does anyone have a LOT of the Armada guys? I have looked around on the web and no one seems to make big bases and such for them, and I have been working on it I just need more of the guys for my generals and Conquestadors(spelling?) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

6285 compared to 6268: the first one you own for the 'looks' (the original owner build it in real also mostly for show-off...!), the second one is best for playing. My kids (6 and 9) are allowed to play with all my Lego-sets, and the ships with easy (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) From a playability standpoint, definitely the SES is better, but as more of a modeler or wargamer, those "playability" features don't add much. The BSB is easily modified to have a 4 gun broadside (check out my RSB). The capstan on the SES is (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jan-01, to lugnet.pirates)
