How guns were tied to the deck when they were not in use?
Dear All,
I am building the model of the ship "Cannoniera olandese n.2". I have seen plenty of photos of the guns in battle position, but I want to show the guns when they are in "transport" position.
Could you please let me know where can I find some materials on how the guns were tied to the deck when they were not in use. I have some drawings, but they are not clear at all.
Thank you
The first illustration shows the cannon in battery or battle, second in peacetime or travel and the third trips in severe storms.
If you decide on the second option, you should keep in mind that you will lose space on the deck, making it more difficult to work with details.
