Prince De Neufchatel Carrondades?

[BritByker]

My kit came with brass carronades and wheeled carriages.  I see on this forum that many are replacing these with carrondades on slides?  But my search today yielded some images of carronades on wheeled carriages, so I believe they were historically correct as well.  Does anyone know which was correct on the PDN?

Thanks,

Keith

If you're talking about the Model Shipways kit, the brass cannon is over scale - I've scratched my own but the photos look accurate from my research.   I did make mine on sleds for my own artistic license.

I fielded wheeled carriages on mine.

 

Chapelle’s “The Search for Speed Under Sail” showed them.

 

Here’s the link to my build log, which shows my sources:
