It feels very intentional and it’s funny. Yet again he finds a new way to be entertaining Edit, just in case my comment is misunderstood: When I say "funny," I mean that in a more figurative way. Definitely could have used a better word. I mean that the change is interesting, caught me off guard, and I think an improvement. The part that is "funny" to me is the very, very interesting mix of some English (UK) ways of saying words with some American ways of saying words. The two general accent types use different ways of speaking, so being able to combine the two so seemingly smoothly is very impressive.
Avery's career didn't last that long. From the mutiny to the Ganj-i-sawai is a year and a month. More than later pirates who followed in his wake, Avery wasn't married to life as an outlaw - he set out to gain riches, obtained those riches, and then retired. In that regard he's more akin to a protagonist from a heist film than the romanticized image of a pirate that has passed down to us from popular culture. Even the capture of the Ganj-i-Sawai wasn't a solo venture - it was a collaboration by several famous names of the Pirate Round (of which Avery would effectively cheat out of their shares of the treasure after all was said and done). His legend is primarily the fact that he made his wealth and then had the good sense to quit and the good fortune to (seemingly) retire in peace. But good sense doesn't make for a good story. The later Caribbean pirates would get up to more legendary exploits even if they mostly ended up dead as a result of such exploits, exploits like the blockade of Charles Town and the burning of Panama City, the 'Republic of Pirates' on Nassau and Black Bart's string of over 400 prizes, the Skull and Crossbones and putting fuses in your beard. Compared to all that, the story about the guy who immediately beelined for the Indian Ocean, captured one big ship, and then quit just isn't that eye-catching. In addition there were other pirates who did manage to retire with their stolen riches. John Taylor is probably the most notable, who's co-capture of the Nossa Senhora do Cabo with Olivier Levasseur might well have been more valuable in total haul than the Ganj-i-Sawai. He was pardoned, (maybe) served for a time as a Spanish pirate-hunter, and then vanished from history just like Avery. Another one of the captains involved in the Ganj-i-Sawai raid was a Rhode Island tavern owner, he also retired not long after and his tavern, the White Horse Tavern in Newport, still stands today. A lot of other pirates could have retired had they been willing. Blackbeard was one, he was pardoned and it was only when he took back to the seas that he was hunted down and killed. The thrill of being an outlaw was just too much of a rush in many cases. But the smartest criminals were and still are often not the most 'pen-worthy' ones.
Would love to hear more of these ships, cool to see what amazing designs were made, I made my own small fleet of ships on Minecraft but not doing enough research when i started, the flag ship, is a big v, and is slightly bigger then most full military ships, Oh and the masts were big snorcles, and there were.. farms and water "pumps" in the bottom floor... Thanks for reading
11:09 he and his crew may not have removed the quarter gallery (the sort of balcony structures to the side) as one side would have a toilet (the other there for symmetry), so they may have wanted to keep that especially if it was enclosed unlike the ones at the bow. They may have reduced the decoration on it though.
The reason I decided to draw it without the quarter galleries was primarily because there would still be other facilities available at the beakhead at the bow, which is what the ordinary sailors would have used anyways. If the officers decided they really wanted to keep their own private seat of ease, this could easily be moved to the transom, which was already overhanging over the water, without the need for bulky quarter galleries. Or better yet, they could just use a chamber pot and dump it to leeward.
I have two questions 1. What’s with the change of voice and speaking pattern 2. How does the Fancy compare to the Queen Anne’s revenge in speed and fire power And just an idea for a video. To compare the ships of different pirate captains. Might only be me who is interested because I’m a bit of a nerd for ships and weapons
I’ve always wondered if her plans are ferreted away in some dusty archive or something. I seriously doubt they would have been destroyed, especially considering the success the ship achieved.
in "grand voyage online" i had one Fancy,a tea clipper made of rosewood panels,La mort (reffited french Galeasse La Royale), Die Seven Provincen dutch ship, and a SS Savannah.But my flag ship was a Bucintoro with 90 cannons :P
Most English vessels of this period would have had a lion figurehead, which is what I depicted on the Charles II. Dutch ships would have also had some winged mermaids accenting the lion, but other than that, there was relatively little variety in figureheads aside from the largest 1st rates.
5:05 Where did you get the information for the Fancy's armament from. In terms of the weight of shot for the cannons, the 20 6-pounders, 6 3-pounders and 18 9-pounders, is that an estimation you have made or is that listed somewhere?
Shot weight for guns had by this point been standardized by different states, and due to the realities of a human’s strength, these weights all tended to be roughly similar between countries, with minor differences.
You da real one big homie gangsta mac!!! I be watching these boys all up in da krib now when I be bout to fall asleep ..... I subscribed today foo!!! Glad I found this channel up on dis boy hundo!!!! 💯
Do Peter Easton, he was never bested or caught! He died an old man in Savoy as a Marquis. He dictated the location of the first British colony in Newfoundland so they wouldn't disturb his own town. He could count on 1500 men at his height as every Irishmen in the surrounding area of his town in Harbour Grace would work for him. His first mates family actually stayed in the area and are still living there today.
I had to rewind it like 3 times and turn on captions to check he really said "mogging" 😂 I did not expect that in a historical documentary style youtube video haha
I wonder if the Fancy got lucky with multiple long range hits using chain or bar shots from a distance. That or a lucky direct hit from a distance round shot, followed by chain or bar a bit closer.
Ultimately, pirate´s ship is not primarily his home, but his tool to get real rich real fast. There´s no point for such a man to sail his ship until his demise. He got that treasure, this made the first quest complete. The other two quests (disappear, enjoy life) did not require a well known ship anywhere near his persona.
I’ve always wondered if her plans are ferreted away in some dusty archive or something. I seriously doubt they would have been destroyed, especially considering the success the ship achieved. I wonder if anyone has searched Nassau for her bones. I always thought it interesting & poetic that her guns likely used by the next generation of pirates to guard their port.
After watching way too much baumgartner Restoration all i can think is how much better those paintings would look with a few homemade cotton balls, magic potion and elbow grease
Ships back then. 46 guns. But they were smaller. Ships now. Way less guns, but they are bigger. If the enemy shoots those guns off guess its ramming time.

Glad I wasn't the only one who was caught off guard

Nah ITS changes in the last few videos. I know some people complained about his accent in the past so I think it was a deliberate choice
Why does everyone always cream their pants over Blackbeard but no one ever talks about the pirate that did what they all thought they where gonna do
No one actually knows that much about it and just parrot media, which think blackbeard was the tits
I think the brutality of Avery makes him less popular. That would be my guess at least

Thank you for another great video. I miss hearing the cannon shots in the beginning of your older videos. Keep up the great work and research.
Good channel. I appreciate that you're not using an AI generated voice and visuals
Your videos are always outstanding but you outdid yourself this time.
As always amazing quality, and you speak very carefully and clearly 🙌 keep it up
Wonder how many young boys in Britain where inspired by Every and his ship ‘Fancy’ to become pirates themselves?
Well, a lot of the marooners were.
Pretty much every pirate after, & all of the ones of the “Golden Age”.
Reba McIntire wrote a song about this ship
Why is the audio so different?
Yeah, I am so confused.

This was fun video and very nice look into pirates and their ship modifications. One of my fav vids this far. The narration is great too. Cheers!

Very nice and instructive story. Much better than recent films. Thank you

2. How does the Fancy compare to the Queen Anne’s revenge in speed and fire power
And just an idea for a video. To compare the ships of different pirate captains. Might only be me who is interested because I’m a bit of a nerd for ships and weapons
Excellent video as always. Took me a few days to get around to watching this in peace, but was well worth the wait.

Have you ever done a video focusing on all the different types of shot for cannons?
He has done so th-cam.com/play/PLQSjRW7kXy7xp4ocVtrydHjOtf0NnSSwH.html&si=KMyujdDscRBwADel
The channel has released three videos of naval artillery. This about the shots: th-cam.com/video/qmwzlP5rx7s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vqN2KzOpOLXoXlLh
can we get a more in depth video about east indiamen?
What about the figurehead of ships? How are these ships decorated? What made say, the Queen Annes Revenge stand out? Besides having 40 something guns?
Most English vessels of this period would have had a lion figurehead, which is what I depicted on the Charles II. Dutch ships would have also had some winged mermaids accenting the lion, but other than that, there was relatively little variety in figureheads aside from the largest 1st rates.
good narration
Beautiful work friend. Try something like this and with other legendary pirate ships.
Imagine if its guns were 3 times longer and fired rifled slugs.
Imagine if it's guns were rifled 105mm guns firing high explosive shells
@@ab3ki84hayate 127mm . Take it or leave it.
So HMS Warrior from 1860?
Imagine if they carried p700 Granit missiles

its nice to know that some pirates had powerful ships😎
Do Peter Easton, he was never bested or caught! He died an old man in Savoy as a Marquis. He dictated the location of the first British colony in Newfoundland so they wouldn't disturb his own town.

A video on bombards versus ships perhaps?
19:49 would you say this is an accurate representation of the Fancy well from what we can see?
Ultimately, pirate´s ship is not primarily his home, but his tool to get real rich real fast. There´s no point for such a man to sail his ship until his demise. He got that treasure, this made the first quest complete. The other two quests (disappear, enjoy life) did not require a well known ship anywhere near his persona.
Ned Low also had a ship named “Fancy”

I wonder if anyone has searched Nassau for her bones. I always thought it interesting & poetic that her guns likely used by the next generation of pirates to guard their port.
Does "bound for the mind" in the opening bit mean "destined to be lost and remembered?
English is my first language, I'm just not smart.
"mind" in this century referred to spirit, it means moreso "bound for adventure/destiny"
Thanks!
This kicks ass.
Groovy story.
Black pearl vs the fancy who would win
