PORTUGUESE SHIP

In the fourteenth century and fifteenth, European ships vary in structure as every port in every country has its own tradition of ship building. Most of the vessels belonging to one of two northern jenis.Kapal called tooth and square-rigged. This means having a single square screen on the center pole. The square sail assist maneuver well before the wind, but not when the wind blows on the side or when the ship sailed to the Mediterranean angin.Atau south is the caravel ship, with a large triangle on the screen two or three pole -pole. the lateen sail maneuver well when the wind comes from the side, but not when the wind comes from behind.
 Northern ships, built with each board overlaps the next. Carvel-built ships to the Mediterranean end of the board mounted to the edge and nailed to a frame. Hull Carvel larger with slimmer lines to make it easy to move around in the water. This ship was built entirely of wood, most likely. Board attached to the hull with wooden pegs. The walls of the hull can be more than 20 inches thick. stomach was fused with gravel to prevent rolling.

  Caravel is a combination of centuries of shipbuilding techniques Arabs and Europeans. Caravels has similarities to the Arabs in the Indian Ocean. Both ship with a narrow proportion of the length and width, and both have a hull in good sailing and maneuvering. In the eleventh century, lateen-rigging ship has spread from the Indian Ocean to dominate the cruise in the Mediterranean.In Prince Henry, the Portuguese ship displays attributes of both the north and Mediterranean influences. Portuguese use of lateen-rigged ships to explore Africa. Maneuvering along the coast that takes a lot of sail angle into the wind or the beating of an adverse wind. for long sea voyages, they use the square in front of the screen, and set sail on the mizzen (aft mast). Square screen is filled like a parachute and pushed the ship at maximum efficiency. Portuguese caravels had some influence from the teeth, such as a strong, straight keel or backbone rather than a curved. caravels Most have two poles and substantial deck to make it seaworthy and strong enough to carry a weapon. This ship is not more than 100 meters long with a lift in the aft section which contains the captain's cabin.
  travel a longer and larger ships with more cargo is required and space crew. Ferdinand Magellan could not sail around the world in a Caravel. In the late fifteenth century, caravels not commonly used.
