Black Seas: Razeed 3rd Rate & 4th Rate
As the smaller ships-of-the-line became less useful in fleet actions due the increasing size and armaments of the larger ships many of them were 'razeed'. This was the process of either removing the quarterdeck and forecastle or otherwise cutting them down to have just two decks. The resulting razeed ships were more stable in rough seas as well as quicker. 64-gun 3rd Rate ships were razeed to become 44-gun vessels ā these were classed as frigates although they generally performed better than the purpose-built frigates of the day. HMS Indefatigable is a well-known razeed 3rd Rate.
Contains two vessels ā one razeed 3rd Rate & one 4th Rate (a mixture of resin, plastic & metal) and game aids.
