mtaylor Posted April 27, 2015 Share #2 Posted April 27, 2015 Which one of each? Wikipedia (a good starting place if Google is obscure with it's returns) lists 12 HMS Discovery's and 15 HMS Chatham's. druxey 1 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jparsley Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted April 27, 2015 The ones in 1788 they sailed together at the same time northwest expedition Quote USF Constellation 1/85 AL Jparsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druxey Posted April 28, 2015 Share #4 Posted April 28, 2015 If you are referring to the Vancouver expedition, Discovery was as depicted here (From the RMG collection). She was similar to a naval sixth rate, but with a merchant ship body. (The cross-section would have been fuller and the bow much bluffer.) If you aren't too fussy, I suppose a kit of Fly, a Swan class ship might be adapted to resemble her. (For those interested, the drawing shows ventilation scuttles on the lower deck: a detail usually omitted from official draughts.) uss frolick and mtaylor 2 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
