Kontreadmiral Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Germany didn't even exist until 1871. Those ships are probably from Prussia. Italy was also first unified in 1859. Edited April 13, 2015 by Kontreadmiral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Månis Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I'm planning to visit the Swedish Maritime museum in the next couple of weeks. I spoke with them earlier and they will help me check the microfilm archives for blueprints. There is still alot of documents who hasnt been scanned yet. The ships i'm focusing on atm are Konung Karl, Wasa, Göta Lejon , Gustaf III and Amarant. I can check if they have anything on Kronan also. If they have any i will get the blueprints and have them scanned. It there any other ship that could be of interest? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyeless_Camper Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Well, there aint alot online about the Hemmema frigates, i have thought myself of contacting them about Kronan and one of the larger Hemmemas. But it would be good if you could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kronan is unfortunately outside of the timeline, but something on the Udema would be nice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udema Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontus-SWED Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 what time line ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyeless_Camper Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) The best i could find after a quick search was 1600-1830 hard limit though 1690-1790 preferred. Which means Kronan is just barely outside the preferred. Edited April 14, 2015 by Eyeless_Camper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nautilus818 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I propose the inclusion of Queen Anne's Revenge, (http://www.woodenshipmodel.com/queen-anne-s-revenge.html). As captained by Blackbeard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BungeeLemming Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 check this thred out! Queen annes revenge was not a three decker. No pirate could ever afford to run such a big ship. She originally was a tradeship wich was upgunned to 40 cannons. So either that homepage did mess up the previews of they didnt do the research. I am at least happy you didnt mean the "PoC ship". Hollywood really messes history up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
