A wonderful write-up on an interesting ship. The longboat looks real good and the crew is certainly eclectic. You were going for some sort of record for harpoons? I mean really, I don't see how you could have fit any more on there. :) Does the stern (...) (18 years ago, 7-Dec-06, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

Ahoy! The newest arrival in the waters around Port Brique is the whaling brig Egregious. Whalers have tended to operate further south, but Port Brique was a resupply stop for Captain Warning in his hunt for a peculiarly coloured great whale. (URL) (...)

Hey, nice idea, taking floating rocks in a new direction. Nice construction too. The masthead and sky barnacles are great touches, and the overall shape is quite nice.

Was there a 5 mark coin for the original pirate sets? If I remember correctly the coin denominations were something like 5, 15, 25, and possibly 50. Can anyone confirm this or is this just my imagination? (18 years ago, 29-Oct-06, to lugnet.pirates)
