    Adventure Galley 

     

    Captained by Scottish sailor William Kidd, the 287-ton, three-mast Adventure Galley was launched along the Thames River in 1695. As part of a venture planned by New York Colonel Robert Livingston to curb attacks against British ships in the East Indies, Kidd was instructed to hunt down pirates and enemy French ships and steal their treasure and goods. To facilitate the mission, which was funded primarily by prominent English noblemen, the Adventure Galleywas outfitted with 34 guns and 23 oars for maneuvering the ship in calm winds. Pirate hunting, it turned out, wasn't easy. Kidd had agreed to pay back the investment if he didn't return any treasure, and when finding pirates proved too difficult, he resorted to attacking allied ships. Kidd abandoned the Adventure Galley, which had developed a rotten hull, off the coast of Madagascar in 1698. He hoped to receive a pardon from Livingston in New York, but was returned to London, found guilty of piracy, and executed in 1701.

  3. Hi.

    I want to make a question to developers, about how you gonna do with the Spanish Flag , and the French and English flag?, i mean, that they were changed a few times between 1700 and 1820.

    The spanish chase is this::

    War flag (1701 -1784)

    Merchant Flag (1785 - 1927)

    So, How you gonna do?

    I think that the other nations like France and England have the same problem, for these reason, I want to know if you have a idea to resolve it

  4. I'll leave here a name that has been forgotten so frequently. Read about him: Blas de Lezo.

    Only of a few english persons know about him, many of they, still thinking that Vernom was a great Seaman

  5. The rpoblem with the figurehead of the "Santi", is that she maybe had two figurehead, one that it was the lion:

    and other than i can´t demostrate than it was true, that it was the Archangel Saint Mikel:
