Did I miss the actual inventory? I can't seem to find it.
Really, we need to get these fleets into an actual room
(or convention hall) together. ;)

I have no doubt. Hey, do rowboats or rafts count? Half
a class, maybe?

At least, if not more. I'm amazed at how compact you got
your collection for the last BrickFest!
That's going to be one crowded room if all goes according
to plan. It'll look like Navarino Bay in September 1827!
(You don't want October. It involves open flame.)
When I get back to NJ, I plan to start building in earnest--
I've never actually fielded a *real* 16-wide pirate ship
(the bomb ketches don't count), and I now have enough hull
bits to put together at least 40 or 50 classes of 'common'
pirate ship, plus lots of cutters.

SCLF as a result)
