Title: Buiding my next french ship
Post by: Euthanasor on October 05, 2012, 09:31:20 AM

I started a conversion to build a 3rd rate ship from 1663.

The explainations are on my blog, sorry, it's in french.
It will serve as a wreckage for the next scenario because I couldn't achieve the masts in time.

Ohh this is a nice ship.
I have been tempted to get me a ship on me own and this isn´t helping in trying to keep me away from the sea. Nice looking ship indeed.

Thank you guys...

A Majestic work fit for a King's Navy.
Thank you for the detailed steps in your blog. There are several ideas there that other ship builders can benefit from including me.
