I believe they were 8 poundersAssuming her armament was all 32 pounder Carronades, based on the drawing from Dupin the running tackle blocks were likely about 6" long. The rope would be about 2" circumference and the breech rope would be about 5 inch circumference. There is good information on tackle for long guns, but I have never been able to find definitive data on Carronade rigging. If anyone can share a source on this information that would be great. I could not find info in Falconer, Dupin, or elsewhere in other than drawings, so far.
Thanks

I saw something similar on Olha Batcherov's recent video. Interesting but beyond my abilitiesInteresting that the eyebolt and ring bolt go all the way through the bulwark; something I’ve always tried to avoid doing on my models.
