(...) Building an ancient Greek style warship of some kind has always been one of my lego dreams. Any pics of that online? Or are there any pics that anyone knows of other attempts at recreating a trireme/bireme? cheers Magnus (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Hey Bruce, go for it, I dare you! See how many minifig rowers can be crammed into the hold of a ship, stacked in three levels so tight they barely have room to move the oars! Oh, wait, that makes it easy. The real challenge is that they be able to (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.pirates)

Holy cow is this a good site! I entered "bireme pictures" in google and got my socks knocked off: (URL) was lookin' for pictures (and got 'em), and got buried under an avalanch of information about anything that resembled a boat from 2600 BC to 16 (...) (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.pirates)
