History

Trade between the East Indies (i.e. India, Ceylon, all the way to the Far East) and Europe demanded ships that were able sail long distances, carry large cargoes to maximize profitability and enough cannons to defend themselves from attack by pirates. The 'Mignone' East Indiaman is a classic example of such a ship. Broad of beam and with a deep draft this vessel can carry a huge cargo. Frigate rigged she is an efficient sailer though not outstanding. However she is armed like a frigate so she is a formidable foe when challenged by a lone pirate. This ship was modelled by "Spankybus" Mignone.
