King's Yacht

[Skulls_Eye_Schooner_Sailor]

An establishing shot. Why was there never a King for the Imperials? Anyway, I decided to make one. And a boat for him, too.

Although, it could also be an Admiral's/Captain's Launch/Yacht, as well, and my Imperial ship was actually modified to carry it behind the stern castle at one point, similar to SES.

It even has a rudder, but does it need one?

The model sans minifigs, and displaying the sail adjust-ability.

My inspiration was actually that small ship built on a dinghy from an ad for one of the old idea books in an old S&H catalog. I actually built a similar ship for pirates, since I didn't have a pirate ship, back in the day.

Version 1, and how it usually looks since I only have one of those white roof pieces!

Wow, I really like this, one of the smallest I've seen yet I like the main idea for it, and the white with brown actually looks kinda nice, in MOP. I think it looks very good, nice work mate Keep bricking, I like seeing what you create.

MOP?

Thanks, did you see the Piratey Island I made?

[Fires-storm]

MOP=my own opinion

Yup, saw it, it really does remind me of an old style pirate fort set, and the colors you chose look pretty good together. I just didn't have time to comment on it

I love it. You took the concept of building something on a row boat hull and managed something pretty good.

Oh, I thought there was more LEGO fan terminology for me to learn.

So go post there now.

Thanks, Hornbricker, I think it turned out pretty well considering, and you start to forget it is built on a row boat!

That looks pretty nice. Perhaps the steering wheel isn't necessarry though. I would add a rudder at the back instead.

Great work on the rigging and hull though, I really like how you've made the bow.

[Captain Becker]

Backmoor is right at me, here should be a rufdder instead of steering wheel, but the rest of the ship is very instresting keep it up mate

Look closely. There is a rudder!

You are probably right about the wheel, though. Although, when I removed it, before taking pictures, it seemed like something was missing. Perhaps there is something else I could put there in its place.
