Hi Leif,

I still enjoy using my various yards of blue fabric – they’re cheap, portable, and effective.  🙂

I used Ben’s site to do some quick research on what sets to aim for. I bought a full 36 pack box of ‘Revenge’, some ‘Mega Packs’ from Ocean’s Edge, a few individual ships I wanted, and six packs from the original Spanish Main set (not unlimited). That should get us started I hope.

Welcome aboard Leif!  Glad to have you aboard.

The shipyard they were moored at was destroyed in a mighty fire a fortnight or so ago. Lost 99% of my vessels, crew and booty. Now I search for replacements…. alas a very expensive quest.

Yikes, sorry to hear about that. I’ve got some extras I received for free a few years ago I could part with to help you rebuild, I’ll message you about it.
