[MOC] Cross Bone Clipper

Recommended Posts

I finally got around making a new ship... boat... dinghy...
Yes, it's quite small :pir-grin:.

The Cross Bone Clipper is based on the classic 1997 Pirates set with the same name (6250 Cross Bone Clipper).
I never had that set though, I believe it was never even sold in Europe.

As this is an entry in a LEGO Ideas contest, I worked with a brick built sail.
But I might add custom rigging later, she'll do well as a cutter I think :pir-classic:.

I actually considered having a limited sleeping compartment in the aft of the boat. However, earlier designs ended up being too gritty to my liking.

An interesting fact: while my version is only half the size of the original set, it does contain twice the amount of parts.

I'm hoping to build more of these small ships as they are very suitable to fill my Island harbor.

So you mean it's not done yet? We may see more exciting innovations!
