Thanks Marc. It's kit #MS4011 in the Guns of History line by Model Shipways. There's actually a couple on eBay right now. I think they're almost $50 from ModelExpo, I won an eBay bid on one for only $15, great deal.

I have to stop looking at it, I see flaws and want to redo it! OCD noooo!

Thanks Buck. They were made from the scraps of sailcloth that I used to test out different color options for the sails.

I'm not sure that it's perfectly authentic. When I researched barracoes I found a site that had dimensions and capacities of barrels and found the kit supplied barrels had a collective max volume barely half of what Blighs record show. That's why I added all the extra barrels to achieve the minimum total capacity to match up with his log. The barracoes were scratch made to specs I found for that time period, I think they're about 5gal each.
