Dear Mr Hoving,
Many thanks for this tread and this latest addition . Really interesting, learning a lot from slowing reading through your posts on this forum over the years.
Recently got interested in shipbuilding, after building basic beginner kits now contemplating switching to cardboard and one of the 17th century dutch ships (dutch myself). By lucky accident recently acquired a "canav dutch 1740 galjoot" kit, but this kit is currently above my skill level :-) and the original designing company "misplaced" the english version of the building instructions...and my . Its lines are very similar to the fluit ones, especially the stern.
Back on topic. Would a "european"waters" fluit be more similar to later galjoot/galjot's as they were also for european trade?
