  Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
I'm looking at getting into pirates and am trying to figure out just how many different sets of bow and stern sections there are, and which ones are used in which sets? Are there any hulls that are considered generally better or worse than others? (...) (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) The Fibblesnork Guide (link from Lugnet's front page), gives a good summary of everything pirate in a general way. It classifies by ships, bases etc. Then check the instructions on Brickshelf for the nitty-gritty. The wider the hull, the more (...) (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) I'm not sure of all of them, as I'm not pirate complete like some people around here. (pardon my drool at the thought) I thought I would point out that there is a non-pirate hull in the Flying Time Vessel 6493. It's also the only gray hull so (...)

  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) The FTV is a pirate hull in a different color scheme. If you're talking the big pre-fab hull pieces, there are really 3 kinds of each: 16-wide and 12-wide in bow, center, and stern. If you want to dvide them based on colors there's a lot more (...) (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) My Baseplate Finder is still not complete, but the multi-part hull page is ready: (URL) this helps. Cheers, Heather -- Heather Patey St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada Pirate Wench / Brick Detective (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) Yeah, the FTV is cool, but why weren't ship hulls used for different themes and sets? There are 2 ways I wish Lego used ship hulls. One, they could've used ship hulls for sunken ships in the Divers theme. The divers did have a few sunken (...) (24 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) I totally agree on the whole Shipwreck idea. In fact, I have one spare 16 wide Stern piece that I attach to a plate for an obstacle while playing the Pirate Game. (once again, inspired by watching Evil Captain Stevie) ARRRR!! Sean (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) I don't know, I thought the Perilous Pitfall was a pretty good- looking shipwreck! But as for semi-intact, one must consider the condition of most shipwrecks as found...unless you're lucky and find a Vasa or a half of the Mary Rose, most (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) Since no one has yet given a good concise listing yet, here are the pirate hull parts which exist and the sets they're in: brown 16-wide bow: 6285 (1), 6274 (1) brown 16-wide center: 6285 (3), 6274 (1), 6286 (3) brown 16-wide stern: 6285 (1), (...)

  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) Yea, I'd like to see the dark grey 12 wide center section. Also, a black one would be nice (hmm, want to see a class 5 HMS Bugsplat????). (...) I had an extra stern section for a while, traded with Heather to even her up, and then ended up (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  Re: Pirate hulls: how many different ones are there?
 
(...) Wondered what happened with that. (My brown hull is still patiently waiting for inspiration.) I added a text link for 6250 to the BF and will put the image in when I get it scanned. Thanks for the correction! Cheers, Heather -- Heather Patey (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
