I got this pic off Facebook. Unfortunately it didn't say where the flag is held. Aha! "It's kept in the national maritime museum in Greenwich - and it is 32 ft. x 47 ft. in size." Steven

Hi. I'm trying to date a historical map, and it has been suggested that someone on this forum might recognise particular features of ships drawn on the margin (see below) which might pin the dating down to a particular decade of the 18th century. The map itself (of part of the south coast of England) is very sketchy, and what seems to be an even sketchier copy of it in the same archive collection has accounts scribbled on the back dated 1750. I'd be interested to know the likely occupation of the depicted ships too. Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions! Stephen (on Twitter @docuracy)

I have a question regarding the stern flag pole on my HMS Leopard rigging plans. The standing rigging plan shows what I believe to be a flag pole mounted to the stern. Seems reasonable until I look at the running rigging plan and see see that the spanker boom runs out past it. How does the spanker boom go past center when rigged to the port or starboard side? Far from a rigging expert, what am I missing? Standing rigging plan running rigging plan Any help would be appreciated. Tom
