Bodi Posted September 1, 2017 Our brave captain Jean Lebarbu has recently acquired a new ship boat, not quite new in fact, to be frank, it's a refurbished pirate boat, abandoned on the drydock for twenty years. Luckily for him, the boat was sturdy built and has resisted to weathering and erosion. He recruited two men wandering in the Eltina Shipyard, which is undergoing a strike, and "borrowed" some materials from the workshop. After one day of hard work, the boat was ready. Time to set sail and do some smuggling. This is a quick built, completed in a couple of hours. I built it for my son in exchange of the Destiny's Bounty intercepted by him, i told him that he can keep all the ninjas and all the weapons and gadgets, along with a new ship from dad's shipyard, and he agreed.

Ayrlego Posted September 1, 2017 Nice little ship, I like the amount of detail and overall shape especially the stern. Also nice deal - the destiny's bounty is a great kit that I would like to pick up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, it's a very well designed boat, the ninja's bounty, hope they can keep the same standard for future pirate sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SilentWolf Posted September 5, 2017 I have been contemplating building a boat with my smaller hulls like you have done here. This might inspire me to do so though I doubt I will create as nice looking of a boat. Nice angles on the rear cabin and great job on the custom sails.

Thank you SilentWolf. i find boats built with these smaller hulls highly swooshable, able to stand hours of play in the hands of a pre-school boy. Looking forward to your new ships.

Excellent arrangement. Nice little vessel. Hopefully it survives Hurricane Preschool-Child. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The boat is of simple build and my son is a big boy now, he can repair it by himself when it breaks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted September 9, 2017 Small boat - quite straightforwardly designed Go on with those custom sails. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mesabi Posted September 9, 2017 Very nice ship @Bodi. I made one recently with the same hull, but I waited to post it because your's is so much better than mine. She could use some cannons though. Don't want anything... unfortunate... to happen to her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great! You have a new ship too, I'm impatient to see it. ...anything unfortunate..., well first I'll warn the new proprietor of the boat to stay away from the WTC raiders traders.
