Niagara_1812 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) The 1751 ship named Santisima Trinidad was a 60 gun Manila Galleon, not to be confused with the mighty 1st rate Santisima Trinidad of 140 guns already in game. She was laid in Bagatao Island shipyard in 1751, and had a cargo capacity of 2,000 tones. On October 2, 1752, she was intercepted and captured by the British ships HMS Panther and HMS Argo. Her cargo valued at $1.5 million dollars, and the ship was valued $3 million. The ship was towed to Portsmouth, where both captains were rewarded 30,000 pounds. Specifications Tons burthen: 4,409 tons (2,000 tonnes) Length: 167 ft 6 in (51.05 m) (gundeck) Beam: 50 ft 6 in (15.39 m) Draught: 30 ft 6 in (9.30 m) Complement: 413 Manila Galleon Plans coming later...

SteelSandwich Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Did the brits convert that ship? When i count the main deck they are 13 on the top one and 12 on the bottom one. The stern does not have a balcony on the second on. The guns on quarterdeck of the second one are fully incorporated into the planking/freeboard of the top one. Also, a friendly side note, putting (with plan) indicated that you have drawings along the likes of: This would allow the devs to actually build the ship. Images are good however impressions of her appearance yet not her build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maturin Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 First pic is just a random generic galleon, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sella Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) The cross section plan is probably of a 4th rate called La Galga : http://threedecks.org/index.php?display_type=show_ship&id=12770 Edited April 25, 2016 by Sella22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense intended but it feels like you're throwing images up without doing indepth research and cross referencing images that pop up in your search results. If I type in "USS America 1782" I get results that include British lineships and even photoshopped paintings of the USS Constitution. Try to be a little better when looking up ships to propose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara_1812 Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 First pic is just a random generic galleon, right? Not exactly, it's a Manila Galleon of the same design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvenski Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) Also I just added another Manila Galleon blueprint. As in, just a random blueprint? You realize that's about as helpful as creating a thread about a French Ocean-class 1st rate and then including blueprints of HMS Victory, just because she's of the same class (1st rate)? To top it off, there's no way that third blueprint in the OP is even of a ship from the same century as Santisima Trinidad.

Pretty sure the XVII at the bottom is an indication of what century 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
