This 6th Rate represents the Dutch 3 mast yacht 'Swol'. To make it easier to spot the freeboards were painted in red/white/blue and some guns were removed to make clear she's not a fully armed 6th Rate.

I did a bit of extra work on the stern, showing mermaids in full color and the coat of arms of the city of Zwolle: 'Swol'. Since she was a yacht she was more elaborately decorated. Although being a historic ship I was not able to find any info on he actual appearance.

The English ship 'Anne' of the White squadron had the wings of the angel figurehead removed to give her a more generic look. The Dutch 3rd Rate 'Groot Hollandia' had the angel figurehead removed completely and replaced with a lion from a sprue of Black Seas ships.

I removed the 'sunbursts' from the stern to get some more room for the freehand paintings. The painting of the stern of the Dutch ship 'Groot Hollandia' was based on its historical counterpart but the different configuration of the stern (the model represents a slightly later type of ship) made a one-on-one representation impossible.
