The four Pumps drawing

Dessin d'une coupe de la frégate du roi L'Etoile
10001

Drawing showing the four Pumps. Cross-section of the Royal frigate Estoille. The cross-section of this light frigate displays characteristics similar to the Dauphine (1704) – the same slender keel in comparison to the keelson, and a rather slim profile at the level of the midship frame. It could well be the Etoile, which was built at Le Havre by Cauchois in 1703. Watercolour by Gueroult. (Série 6JJ89 page 74)
