Indeed. Another prospect who was chasing after another daughter once remarked (while looking at my partially completed model of the Vasa): "is it Noah's Ark?"

Me: it has guns...

Him: they didn't have guns back then?

The ship may never actually get launched but the crew can at least stave off any attempts on the rum stores.

Apart from the turned brass barrels, these are completely scratchbuilt—not completely accurate, but a simplified representation of the real deal. Overall, I’m pretty pleased, but my level of precision and consistency is better suited to a factory mass-producing decor models; however, I think these will look reasonable enough once incorporated into the whole.

In der Tat. Ein anderer Interessent, der einer anderen Tochter hinterherjagte, bemerkte einmal (während er mein teilweise fertiggestelltes Modell der Vasa betrachtete): „ Ist das die Arche Noah ?“

Ich: Es hat Waffen ...

Er: Gab es damals keine Waffen ?
