Project Sail

#1 Post by Rodondo »

Something that's always struck me is the rather large gap in numbers of sailing vessels on the bucket, so here starts my attempt to help remedy that. :)

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Windjammers! Yay! Looking awesome already! Any chance for such thoroughbreds as Flying Cloud, France (II) and Preussen, as well as the famous "Flying P"-ships of F. Laeisz and Gustaf Erikson, such as Pommern, Pamir, Padua and Passat? Would love to see those beauts on the bucket!

Thanks guys and yes Bezobrazov, I have been looking at the Preussen with a frustrated face recently ;) Certainly a handful of other sailing vessels will be added in due time (next update will be Thursday night AEST hopefully)
