Malachi Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) That´s the wrong Neptunus, Steel Your plan shows the Neptunus of 64 guns, built 1749, designed by Barbé, if I remember correctly. Here´s the one that matches your description: Length 189' 7' (imperial) Breadth 49' 11' Launched 1789, wrecked 1807 en route to England Quite an impressive ship with a very nice stern and head, I really like the style of the late 18th century danish designs (until Hohlenberg became fabrikmeister ). By the way, does anyone know how heavy the danish pound was? Edited April 5, 2019 by Malachi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelSandwich Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Thank you! I have edited the topic so the right image is in. There was a slight mix-up in the neptunus's, the 1749 is to arive soon! As posted by brigand, it shows all but the danish pound... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sella Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) I think 1 Danish pound(Skålpund) is 471 grams.At least that's what Wikipedia says https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_(mass) If you scroll down a bit you will find it Edited November 17, 2015 by Sella22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesley Adams Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I'd like to see some Fluyt's and Race-built galloens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malachi Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Uh, there was a rather heated discussion about the inclusion of fluyts some time ago. But I very much doubt that you´ll ever see ships like the Golden Hind ingame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Loe Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Please list your ships here: http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/7306-player-ship-selection-1st-half-2016/ for a chance to get them in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
