    That is a very neat way of showing the examples of the debate about the size of ships which has rumbled on for as long as it is since the second series came out of harbour. A lot of advice has been given both to shipmates here and to Ares by people involved in the stages of getting the ships correct. Both Dave Manley and DB have put in a huge amount of research to help in this as each ship was envisioned and produced, but production errors still creep in as DB has told us on a number of occasions. It is often too late in the process of manufacture to change these annomolies. It is ,therefore, very good to have your visual on the sizes Alex.
    Thanks for posting this.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    We would also be remiss in not crediting a member who no longer seems to participate for his specialist contribution on the Spanish, though I struggle to recall his username here. I suspect "Mini-gildos" was taken as an insult...
