History

The skipper of a chasse-maree was typically a wholesale fish monger who purchased fresh fish from fishermen at sea and rushed it to inland markets with the tide. The name has often been translated to "tide-chaser" which is not literal but close to the use of the vessel. Many ship captains would pick up cargoes for the return trip. The small two-masted lugger was supplanted by the three-masted lugger. This model was designed by Marion van Ghent.

Strategy and Use

The large chasse-maree is a fast smuggler with a good OS speed that can be easily upgraded by the appropriate outfittings such as studding sails.

Tactics

Properly equipped this vessel may escape capture by sailing upwind.
