It's a ship of the line.
A standart 74 cannon ship?
A standart 74 cannon ship?
It should be - I counted 74 "windows" for guns. (but it was hard counting :D)

Are these card stock/models?
Well shiver me timbers mates. That is a fine looking craft. How many pieces of eight will that set you back, if I may make so bold as to enquire.

They are metal. I'm still trying to find where I put these!
This is a three-decker, most likely the Victory 100 guns. The black squares are the gun ports.
For more variety, both in sail settings and in hulls, have a look at Langton models.

I agree Niek. That is where I got my submarine from. They are excellent.

I'm pretty sure you can't use a submarine in this period Rob.;)

The GHQ on-line catalog has them at $8.75-$13.95 per ship.
There is a battle sail and a full sail catalog

I ended up picking up the #412 112 Gun Ship Of The Line.... I figure it will make a nice diversion as I am waiting for artillery trucks, Balloons, and Dive bombers to dry in my current build queue.

See Richard Fulton!

There is a great game I see when I go to the HMGS East Cons. The ships a big and they play on the floor. I have get into the naval mode.
Thanks for the info Karl.

au contraire! The Nautilus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nautilus_(1800_submarine))

Ok Ok don't rub it in.:(
It didn't see active service though and I think Rob's submarine is a bit more modern than that.
