Wish I'd seen this before watching the show. I'd have payed closer attention.

Scupper, do you know where they got the vessels for the show?

It was great., very informative., I enjoyed it!., Also they had "the Bounty" right afterwards. I'd like to see them again. Kidds plight was questionable., but his trial was bogus with the govt hiding his papers from him.

Yeah it's a good one. Interesting though how Kidd goes from being young, stocky, swarthy, clean shaven, and bald and on baord ship (the Lady Washington) to older, bearded, thin , pale, and with a long grey hair in jail. Those English prisons were hell! :huh:

The magic of show biz it is! :) :huh:

Thanks Royaliste, I thought they looked familiar.

Didn't look how I'd imagined Adventure Galley which is generally described as ship-rigged.

Not sure how Quedah Merchant merchant was rigged, or what sort of hull.
