Sheepings & Sons, LTD, shipwrights, in the New World. Commissioned to build the Heavy Metal Argonaut for famed opportunist, explorer, & treasure hunter Dr. Ludwig Archibald Sheepfield von Sheepstone-Hodges.

Join Dr. Sheepfield as he travels the Aegean islands on his epic quest to find the fleece of the golden ram sacrificed by Phrixus to the god Poseidon. The ship is christened after that which carried Jason & his crew to find the fleece in the 8th century BC. The story of Jason takes him throughout Greece, Crete, the Aegean isles, Georgia, and Turkey, as well as both the Black & Mediterranean Seas. Dr. Sheepfield is a studious sheep, however. The ram was sired by Poseidon, sacrificed to Poseidon, and its fleece would inevitably find its way to Poseidon, he is sure. The islands above may offer clues, but Dr. Sheepfield is convinced the fleece is to be found on the ocean floor, and he has commissioned exactly the ship to find it.

The Heavy Metal Argonaut melds elegance with practicality. Who says you can't squeeze an oily submersible bay, a bunch of common laborers, gentlemen & ladies & their families, and a gorgeous dining area with a dance floor & a spectacular view all into the same vessel? At Sheepings & Sons, LTD, we did just that. We used all the black iron, brass, plates, & rivets we could find to build this beautiful monster of a ship.

The Heavy Metal Argonaut is the ultimate exploratory vessel! The shallow keel and paddlewheel propulsion allow ingress into waters as shallow as the Mississippi River itself, while its sails & sideboard paddlewheels enable it to brave the high seas to traverse the globe, or simply power through difficult weather. The aerosails along both sides provide extra propulsion in a good chasing wind, or can serve as mechanical oars in a dead calm. Whatever the weather, the Heavy Metal Argonaut is designed to move forward!

And when the Heavy Metal Argonaut is finally stopped, its greatest cargo has the chance to shine. A submersible bay is equipped to maintain, repair, & launch 2 submersibles to work in tandem. These STEVe's (Sumbersible Tactual Exploratory Vessels) have mechanical tactual arms controlled by their pilots, enabling them to sift through wreckage & extract exactly what is desired. A treasure hunter's dream, no sunken vessel is safe from their intrusions.
