What’s on your workbench for October?

[TexaS]

Excuse me Admiral, but we usually don’t call a brig a ship...

This may seem like I get a lot done, but I don’t...

Ready for rigging.

I stand corrected Captain. A slip of the Bowline I'm afraid. I was under the impression that a Brig was a ship.
Bligh.

[Comte de Brueys]

Nice schooner project, Jason!

You may remember this:

"And pray, what in sea-language is meant by a ship?"
"She must have three square rigged masts, sir", they told him kindly, "...and a bowsprit ...and the masts must be in three, lower, top and top-gallant, for we never call a polarka a ship."
"Don't you though?" said Stephen.
"Oh no sir!" they cried earnestly, "nor a cat, nor a xebec, for although you may think xebecs have a bowsprit, it is really only a sort of wooden boomkin."
"I shall take particulate notice of that." said Stephen.

I do remember it Jonas, and read it not long ago either but several Naval story books on I don't remember which of our heroes it was? I will now have to look at my Kindle and see which one is Stephen.
