The schooner DOS AMIGOS
The DOS AMIGOS was a US slaver that was rigged as a brigantine schooner.
Like most slave ships she was a very fast ship. In 1830 she was captured
by the British Royal Navy and refitted as a anti-slave patrol vessel.
From that time, 1832, a complete set of actual design plans have
survived.
