The next stage of the Camperdown project has been completed with a 'Let's Build' addition to the collection with the modelling of the 12-gun armed lugger HMAL Speculator together with a French Chasse Marie to fill a gap for those single ship privateer encounter scenarios.
The lugger was a common site in British waters ideally suited for operating close to shore and in the shallows that would have typified the shoal waters of the Dutch coast and was a constant threat to British merchant shipping when in the hands of competent and motivated privateers.
If you would like to know more about luggers and how these models were constructed then just follow the link to JJ's. link JJ |

is a big fan of the Age of Sail, and these ships really speak to him - he loves transitional eras, and the Anglo-Dutch Wars was one of those.
