This Navwar model is marketed as the HMS Implacable, which was the renamed French third rate 74-gun vessel Duguay Trouin. I have modeled it as the original French 74. As with all of the Navwar vessels I build, the ratline/shrouds, masts, spars and sails are scratch built.

Vol,
Love the ship. I'm getting my act together slowly Vol. Got this site and your blog back on my favourites list. I have hope for me!
