My latest project was a drawing for the hired merchant ship, the Acorn (22 guns). My working assumption about armament is 14-sakers (5-1/4pdr) and 8 minions (4pdr). I already have a spreadsheet that covers the calculations for the Acorn. The Acorn was hired from 1649 to 1654, but we don't have any information about captains. The Acorn served with the fleet, in 1652, but after Dungeness seems to have been relegated to convoying or patrolling.
