I've rigged and put a sail on my first cutter. I know the red rigging isn't standard, but it's all I had. I mad the sail out of paper and I plan to put one more sail on it. See pictures 13 to 17 at the link below. (URL) Clangador (20 years ago, 2-Apr-04, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Thanks. I fixed the topmast after I realized it wasn't correct. I've made a sail for it (should it have more than one?), and I'm working on the rigging. I will post some follow up pics later today or tomorrow. (20 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

(...) I like the use of the technic axles for the mast (though the arm should be in front of the mast, rather than behind). The topmast attachement is particularly good. Swivelling the cannon from the back of the carriage is a nice touch. I'll look (...) (20 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
