If you look at most pirates during the Golden Age, they were content with going on short trips, stealing a bit of money, and then going home to blow it all away on rum and women. For this purpose they didn't need anything bigger than a sailboat the likes of a sloop or brigantine. But there were pirates that wanted to achieve more. They wanted to capture large merchants, blockade cities, or travel across the ocean. For these purposes, they needed a much bigger boat. Huge ships that could travel far and fast, carry large crews and lots of cannons. In the right hands, these vessels had the ability to destabilize local commerce, or even cause international crises. In this video we will cover the ship that you NEVER wanted to meet at sea: the pirate man of war. 0:00 Introduction 0:46 Man-of-War 3:41 Frigate 4:54 Ship 6:11 Construction 11:25 Acquisition and Refitting 14:12 Usage I know the slide to "Acquisition and Refitting" says "Construction".
