Ahoy all,
A little advanced technology from the shipwrights of Port Brique, the Guerre
de Roue:
More pics here,
post moderation.
The Guerre de Roue was built out of parts on hand, and you can probably
tell a few areas where I was scraping the bottom of the parts barrel... I
find narrow hulls a bit of challenge to build well with, but a mid 19th
century sidewheeeler can use the narrowness of the hulls well.
As always, comments and criticisms welcome.
Cheers

Im not sure how suitable this really is for pirates... so please consider
FUT if replying.

This is a very elegant looking dual-powered vessel. Is the thin smokestack
accurate to the era? I find the bley an excellent choice for the metal.
I hope your recent spate of posting is a promise of more of your excellent
sea-going vessels.
