So we had some rainy weather this weekend, which I intended to put to good use extending my blue coat fort. Somehow during the building process this all got derailed, when the idea started to take shape that maybe my blue coats could be building a ship; in a dry dock; as part of the fort. Then this just became building a ship. It's only small because I didn't really have the parts or the inclination to start destroying the rest of the scene I was working on....
I guess it's a bit unconventional, I started building upside down and switched halfway so the ship can be separated into two parts revealing the storage compartment below (and as long as you don't fully load it too much it fits together rather well, considering).
But my blue coats were happy with my mini ship and just about all squeezed on, cannons and all...
The whole little ship

So here is the side view of the two halves...

I guess this the first time properly posting something that I have built myself, so go nuts with comments, complaints and recommendations... This ship could sink at any moment so all feedback welcome.
