Actually I did get some inspiration from it, primarily for the bow and stern. Most of my inspiration came from another member who post a French bomb ketch utilizing the durmstrom hull which gave me confidence to successfully use it for this MOC. As far as floating I can say that without a doubt it will sink like a rock stern first. The stern end weighs about 25 pounds so it's hard enough to keep it level when you're holding it :).

[pid][/pid] 135B Hi all, I'm a bigger poster on CC but I figured it would make more sense to get an account and throw this up over here. Anyway, After waiting... and waiting... and giving up I decided I'd make my own Lego Flying Dutchman. Not for show or anything but just for playing. So my basic requirements were: -I wanted something that looked like a lego set (so that other sets wouldn't look completely dwarfed. -Based on the two ships released for POTC and the Imperial Flagship I wanted to have a different colored hull, and grey seemed to be a good idea. -I didn't want to use any non-lego parts like paper for sails. So this is what I came up with - Here's a link to the rest of the flickr gallery as I haven't hit 5 posts yet :P http://www.flickr.com/photos/45110938@N08/sets/72157630099710300/with/7359989728/ Enjoy! *EDIT: Yea I know I missed a G in Lego :P
