Looking for a French Patache 1500s-1700s (pictures or a model)

[JGrubber]

Hello, I work part time as an illustrator, and am looking for a French or Spanish Patache dating from the 1500s to the 1700s. I want to find source pictures for illustrating accurately, or a model I can take photos of to use for illustrating. I have searched online extensively but haven't had any luck.

Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Have you contacted the Musee de la Marine in Paris or the Museo Naval in Madrid yet? They might be able to help or steer you. There are two drawings of a schooner rigged ex-French tender 1798 at Royal Museum Greenwich but these two are architectural not models or paintings. Found the last drawing below of a Portuguese patache that you probably have seen. Hope this is at least a little help......
