Ship+information-nick

The ships back in the day were not very fancy. Usually there are two decks. One for storing things and the other for sleeping. They have have three different sails, the mainsail, the foresail and the halyard, it was more triangular. The others are shaped like a square. A small sail also was at the top of seeing booth at the very top of the ship. Stews and soups were mainly eaten on the ships. The crew would eat in there laps because they didn't have any tables. Some of the storage in the bottom of the boat was sometimes stored in boxes but some other things weren't.This is the Nina that Christopher Columbus used. Back to the main page Navigational Tools
