Avast ye barbiequers, I keep thinking the omly references to ships cabins will be comic books and movies. This is because I believe that in real life they are less than dramatic. I know they exist and I've been on the Balcutha as well - The H.M.S.Victory is even still commissioned by the Royal Navy(or it was the last I heard). It seems thouugh, that a ship that was 24 feet wide or so that shared a pilot's cabin and a captain's cabin below the steering deck, could not have been very big or very exciting to be in. You might end up having to fake it, and give it your interpretation - might be more interesting than the real thing. Pieces of eight and all that, - TJ
