    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
