  1. dear players. picture of the mysterious ship i have posted is not See Adler. However, the page i took it from has got title Monkbarns or See-adler... so in this case, we could take this answer as correct, as these ships aparently lookd almost identical.

    source of the picture here:

    source that winner probably found here:

    http://monkbarns.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/a-sailors-life-28-monkbarns-or-see-adler-1917/

     

     as you can see, ships look identical, i would say the pictures are the same. but the real ships were not the same. one of them was German raider, the other was the British sailing ship Monkbarns, circa 1918. German ship probably was built to look like british to slip through blockade...

    so all in all, Trippwj, your turn...

    would this count? she was a real ship, altough you cannot really say her name or distinguish what she was from just this picture. if it is too hard let me know and i will name her and find a different one.

    she was french, and in her times she was top tech...

  3. Molasses, bingo. She indeed was originally pereire, after she was wrecked and salvaged she was rerigged as 4masted full rigger. She had colourfull history and have sailed many times around cape horn. She sadly was broken up for scrap metal at the end of her career as so many of them before... Now its your turn to give us some good one. Good luck.

    Cristiano, it would be smart move if i have done it. i have done search in the book for a vessel with interesting history, then looked for a good picture of the same vessel. so you still can be looking for the ship online.

    Bill, this list is handy, my ship is present there...
