Cutter

Cutters were used mainly for patrolling and possessed a fairly good speed and seagoing abilities. A cutter was a single-masted ship with quite an advanced rig. On the upper board were about 18-20 guns or carronades. Its characteristics helped the cutter to exceed the yacht and logically take over from this class of warships. Players will be unable to use it in major battles for domination at sea, but it is well suited to control vast sea communications and destroy obsolete (17th century) enemy ships.
