(...) Excellent idea. Two pieces: a stern/bow section and a straight one to allow different lengths. Just similar to multi part floating boats of the good old times (no this was even befoe lugnet). It actually looks awesome, too. This would be the (...) (18 years ago, 7-Dec-06, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

(...) That must be what makes it "Egregious." :) Seriously, nice ship with a great write-up, and some awesome building tips too! Arrrrgh! (18 years ago, 7-Dec-06, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

(...) That's a most impressive flagship. Very ornate, but also quite plausible, and nicely shaped. The gaff arms on the mizzen perhaps look a bit modern compared to the lateen arms on the forward three (!) masts, but otherwise, most impressive (...)

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) (...)
