History:

HMS Bonetta and HMS Delight has been in service for Sullivan Shipyards since the beginning. They have served in a vide variety of roles, but with the development and construction of the Kahn-class ships they became obolete and are now used for mostly recrenational purposes. On rare occations they are also used for extremely fast transport of small amounts of goods or documents to new or existing customers. The ships are excellent smugglers, and in the early days they were shipping large amounts of contrabande in and out of occupied ports. Specially modified by the shipyards, they were able to outrun any ship in the service of the enemy, and have thus avoided any serious damage.

During the siege of Turtling Bay in August 1720 the pirate occupational force grew tiered of not being able to engage these ships, and launched a flotilla of small fast ships in an attempt to stop them. Due to the sheer number of enemy ships the opperation was halted, but as soon as the flotilla returned to port the ships were again running between the Yucatan ports.
