Bodi Posted June 3, 2018 The commissioning of Cormorant has opened up a new path to small entrepreneurs or adventurers, here we have the Jacques brothers, who have invested their savings in a small cutter, filled it with vegetables and fruits, and sailed away. I really liked Keymonus's boat so I decided to try my hand. The hull measures 34 studs long and 9 studs wide, the hull is shaped by hinges and connected to the bottom plate with hinges as well. It's supposed to be a class 1 cutter, unarmed, it should count on maneuvrability to outrun a pirate. C&C are welcome. Vive le Roi! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LM71Blackbird Posted June 3, 2018 Nicely done! Great shaping of the hull! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Professor Thaum Posted June 3, 2018 Seems that the rear sail has a base length of 13 cm right ? (I counted the small squares of the sheet) Anyway... nice cutter (class 2 ? ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Genaro Posted June 3, 2018 Nice cutter, Bodi. That's an impressive turn around time seeing how Keymonus just posted his yesterday. The rigging could use a bit of work. PM me the stats and a name, and I'll get her licensed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted June 4, 2018 That's a great looking cutter Bodi, and like Captain Genaro mentions it's an impressive turn around on Keynomous build. I really like how you took inspiration from his boat and created your own version... now I have an urge to try it myself... and since I'm down a trader (after some pesky bluecoats outbid me at the last minute on my own vessel ) I may just have to try my hand at a small cutter like this.... great job!

(I counted the small squares of the sheet) Anyway... nice cutter (class 2 ? ) Thanks Thaum, you have a good eye for detail, I think it should be a class 1, since class 2 commonly refers to a boat built with 2 prefab pieces without midsection, length wise it's ok for a class 2 but this one is narrow, only 9 studs wide. 8 hours ago, Captain Genaro said: Nice cutter, Bodi.
