Description

The van Hoorn is the closest thing to a "all aroundship" that can be found at this level. The bow and stern chasers in addition to decent broadside fire power makes it a decent match for both the 'Dolphyn' Heavy Ketch and the 'Mediator' Cutter which are the same level ships.

History

Brigs are one of the most versatile vessels in naval history, employed as merchant vessels, privateer ships and armed naval vessels. All brigs have two masts, a fore mast and a main mast. Therefore they are not true ships, which have three masts, though they are primarily "ship rigged" meaning "square rigged." Snow brigs have the mizzen sail attached to a small mast behind the main mast. A standard brig (e.g. the 'Lexington' Brig) the mizzen sail is attached directly to the main mast. This ship may also be identified by its hull design, which is termed a pink or pinque due to its narrow or pinched stern. This variant of a Snow Brig was modelled by FLS Ship User Content Committee member Michael O'Dwyer (aka Michiel Duijer) and named for his friend Phunix (aka Rutger van Hoorn).
