yes yes, you go have your fun.

i've started on the rigging for the ship. the hull is finished apart from some possible minor details here and there, the masts, bowsprit and stern outrigger are up, and i've made the main and fore shrouds, as well as the main forestay, which is in fact rigged with a couple of pulleys.

there are some things about the rigging on this ship, however, that i find extremely odd. firstly, there's only one crow's nest. one. on the mizzen, while the mizzen and main mast are both square rigged. all the running rigging is led to the crow's nest on the mizzen via a complicated system of pulleys.

secondly, for some reason, two important ropes from the mizzen are led to the main mast shrouds instead of something more stable, like the mast itself. it doesn't make sense.

thirdly, there's no main topmast forestay. none at all. it's just left to wobble there, supported by prayer that it doesn't fall over. luckily, it does have four backstays, and i can see why they left out the forestay. there's simply no sensible place to attach it to, since the fore mast has a gigantic lateen rigged up on it. incidentally, the fore mast heels over at a very odd angle indeed, but that's not uncommon.

something i am quite proud of, however, is the fact that i managed to attach the main mast's standing rigging to nothing at all. it's been strapped to the mast by a long piece of rope, which has been wound around the shrouds, mast and forestay until they where completely unmovable. this is how ropes where attached to masts before they invented iron mast shackles. it works like a charm. i can put as much strain on it as i like. that mast won't be going anywhere without my permission.

they'll be running out of drummers kinda fast like that... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

i've discovered a pretty big technical flaw in my ship's design. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> there's no way i can adjust the lateen yard, because the shrouds are in the way. i should take another look at those drawing plans. those lateens are always giving trouble. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="<_<" border="0" alt="dry.gif" /> they're just too impractical.

may i remind you that i have often been richer than the governments of the islands in PotC? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> i checked. somehow that always happens. only a matter of time in my current game.
