  1. That's it! Thank you very much, I owe you, ccoyle!
  2. Forgot to mention that she is heavily armed: 18 canons on her deck!
  3. Hi everyone, glad to join the forum! I am Greek, live in Athens, and have the ship model building as a hobby. I consider myself an intermediate-level builder. So far, I have built some ships mainly from Artesanila Latina (Santa Maria, Chinese Red Dragon, Hermione la Fayette, HMS Bounty, HMS Endeavour, a section of San Francisco), but also from Occre (HMS Beagle, HMS Terror), Amati (La Pinta), Mantua (Black Falcon) and Constructo (Halifax). Recently, I discovered somewhere an already made ship in a bad condition, and decided to save her from the trash and try to revive her beauty! The problem is that I cannot recognise her, in order to search for the initial plans and drawings. In addition, I don’t know the manufacturer. I believe she is definitely an American two-masted schooner with top sails. The flag is the 1818 US flag (the ‘Great Star’) which was the official flag until 1822. As you will notice, from her foremast to the bowsprit she has 4 jibs (instead of the usual 3). The dimensions are L: 96cm (37.8in), W: 36cm (14.2in), H: 62cm (24.4in) I would appreciate any help from you, guys. Can anyone recognise the ship? Thank you very much!
