The '''Widgeon''' is a fluyt designed for combat. While the hull is similar to the [[Goose]], it holds an extra broadside cannon as well as a pair of chaser cannons at the expense of its stern cannon and cargo capacity. The Widgeon offers a fairly inexpensive alternative to larger, more expensive warships and is known for the extremely long range of its chaser cannons

The Widgeon is a strong, independent fluyt which don't need no 14 cargo. Trading its stern chaser for two bow chasers and losing some cargo capacity in exchange for the ability to have a more ergonomic cannon arrangement, the Widgeon provides a large target to taunt your enemies with while you send them to the bottom of the sea.
