Who makes/sells any 15mm AWI sailors? I've looked, but haven't had any luck finding any. Someone out there must know? Thanks. |

Sailors are pretty much sailors in the age of sail I would think. That said Freikorps makes a set of AWI sailors and gun crews. |

Lancashire games do a pack of sailors as well. |

You could also add sailor figures from Napoleonic ranges as well. |

Thoroughbred Miniatures – nominally Napoleonic, but could easily be earlier. |

Have some packs of ACW sailors sitting around from Stone Mountain. Not sure if they still make them, 'cause ah got them on ebay ? |

Freikorps carries the only specific-to-AWI pack that I know of. Recently I painted several of these as you can see in the linked pic (see the three figures closest to lower left) picture from blog: miniawi.blogspot.com |

Doesn't minifigs have a line of sailors? |

Blue moon 15mm in their pirate range could be suitable |

I have some from various packs in the Peter Pig pirate range. |

Pirate figures tend to be late 17th/early 18th century and covered in facial hair. If visual accuracy is not an issue, you may as well use Napoleonic figures – if nothing else there are more manufacturers and poses on offer. |
