    There was nothing structurally different about the hull between the two year models. This is odd, 1798 should be of the 464 variety as well. White Oak planks over Live Oak frame timbers (without spacing between frames and 5x as dense as English Oak, as opposed to the large 'room and space' framing of British ships) were in the ship from launch.

    Still waiting patiently...
