So how much did a frigate cost in 1780?
Wow, building a replica today costs $27 million. http://www.denverpost.com/breakingne...ts-sail-boston
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financi...olutionary_War States, if correct, that France, Spain, and the Netherlands loaned us over $10 million during the war so this replica frigate costs more now than double our loans back then? Wow!
