First the mast are REALLY thick! And I say it is a sort of Galleon, but I have no idea what kind of galleon.
 
It doesn't look like any type in particular.

Looks OK though.
 
i think it's a large 1690's dutch trading vessel. they still had the bow structure of a galleon, but a far different stern castle.
 
well, there where also ships without the upper spritsail in that time. i wouldn't be surprised if this ship is a bit of a jumble though. ships in PC games usually are.
 
i'm pretty confident that this ship is from the 1600's though. the hull is too streamlined for a galleon.
 
that's the jumbled bit. keep in mind though that ships way after that time also had bowsprits like that.
 
I can't help but think I've seen that ship before <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
.....with an oversized bowsprit. maybe he's compensating for something? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
And people think <i>I</i> have a dirty mind... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Should I feel proud of that? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
probably not. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
But I do <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
'slight' correction on my previous estimate: 1590, not 1690. i checked. those ships don't have the upper spritsail.
