Hi all,
Hmm, seems like several of us are on a spree of building medieval warships.
I recently (finally) got brown boat hull pieces, and want to make a medieval
warship, you know the kind with a crenelated tower at the front and back.
Can anyone help me out with any of these specifics?
How early did shipbuilders discard the single square sail. In other words,
can I use the two blue and white striped sails from the original admiralty
ship, or didn't those come into use until the 16th century?
Is there any evidence for cataputs or balistas being mounted on European
warships?
Did they ever have more than just one main mast?
Would there have been seperate rooms or cabins under the raised towers, or
did the whole crew (and their horses etc) just sleep exposed to the
elements? Would there have been a lower deck?
thanks
Magnus
