Noteworthy ships
These are notes for specific individual ships within Franklincain's fleet.
One-Eyed Jackfish
One-eyed jacks are a "wild" card commonly used when playing poker.
Quantum-Mechanical Catfish
This ship's rename is a homage to the Cheshire cat, by way of (as well as in addition to) Schrodinger's cat.
Space-Time Rift
This modified merchant brig sails the Meridian Ocean. In addition to its custom rename, it has been given a sea serpent figurehead and bronze cannons (main deck only; the cannons in the hold are original issue). It has also been painted -- its railings are purple, and its sideboard and hull are both white.
After being modified, this ship found its way into the hands of its current owner, Franklincain.
Unladen Swallow
The story of the unladen swallow comes from a classic British comedy.
Vorpal Bunni
This ship's rename is based upon the fearsome beast that was "documented" in a classic British comedy.
Vorpal Swordfish
This ship's rename is based upon the legendary weapon that was used to slay a fearsome beast.
