Catamarans are too obviously what they are, and caravels (with their larger, grander scale) look more like "ship" to me than like "boat."<BR/><BR/>Really, the carrack is pushing it. But it was the best I could do.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm glad you found the conceit enjoyable. I imagine this is the sort of goofery that Mike and I might indulge in again some time.Isaachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529618611083147320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290662109425559453.post-16349905171035987972008-06-04T19:40:00.000-04:002008-06-04T19:40:00.000-04:00A brilliant conceit!
