I was going to do this, but I got another midsection and set of square sails,
(and mast, ratlines, cannons, etc) so I effectively did it, but didn't have to

would match up with a BSB or SES by section, sail, mast, cannon and crew.
The Caribbean Clipper is a very nice ship, but it has lots of room to tinker
with if you can snag extra parts. Taking two and making one big ship out of
it is a very good project. It produces a ship not far off any of the three
large ships, and is even reasonable on a cost basis.
