Captain Midnight Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Ahoy! I once saw a link to a site mentioned on the Pub somewhere about diagrams and deck plans for historical ships, but the link that was posted is now dead. I am looking for schematic diagrams and deck plans for an armed sloop of the 1700's. Can anyone help me find such a thing? I am looking in particular for a single masted sloop such as a Bermuda, Virginia, or Jamaica sloop. Any help would be so greatly appreciated! "Now then, me bullies!

Patrick Hand Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 OK... this isn't on the internet..... but there are some in Under the black flag...... I'm too lazy to look up the reference right now tho.............. But it shows both Bermuda and Jamaican sloops.
