Wow! Thanks for pointing this out. A really nice ship and a testament to
building one without the standard hull parts. This guy really did a good
job with providing access to the inside and with inside details. I think
the ship appears to be floating a little too low in the water for the gun
ports. But this is a terribly minor point for such a nice piece of work. I
really love the look of white sails! There is something so classic in them.
I wish Lego had made a ship using white sails to augment the striped ones.
I'm inspired to build another ship now!
happy building...
Tom
