The Sarge Posted May 1, 2016 Lugger "Étalon" by William, on Flickr Honoré Sarrazin commissioned the lugger Ètalon to carry his wares rapidly between ports, at low cost. While she is pierced for four small guns she currently carries a single long 12 as armament. Lugger "Étalon" by William, on Flickr I modeled her after the Parakeet but made her a little stouter and larger so she'd rate as a 3F. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tezclatipoca Posted May 1, 2016 That's a fine vessel and sure the building technique you used is great ! But I would like to see her with sails and a good rigging, that would help to see the fast aspect of your vessel :) Good job ! Brick on ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacob Nion Posted May 3, 2016 Very elegant hull indeed. I agree that it could use some rigging, the masts are the only weak point. And a bow sprit would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Sarge Posted May 9, 2016 Thank you! I will add some rigging and sails later and post the fresh photos - I think I want to try cloth instead of paper this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
