I just won an E-Bay Auction for a 6267 Lagoon Lock up. I paid about $28 Total and thought I got a Very GOOD Deal, however the lack of bids had me thinking otherwise. The Set included 3 blue soldiers and the Large Blue Flag (Which I thought was very (...) (25 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Yeah, I figured they were way too small for a ship by themselves--my thought was to install a dozen or so (for a whopping 180 BHP)...but the problem with the three-deck model is that the ship isn't full-hull, it's waterline. I wish I could (...) (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.pirates)

According to: (URL) is a "very large ship". Of course there are 4 ships which are larger, 1 the same size, and 2 (or so) smaller (the or so is 6493 and the cutter from 6277). (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.pirates)
