Europe should value its naval history more (and its forerunners, hello!). The naval industry was the enterprise which allowed global Euro dominance to really take off. Pay your respects to the caravel, chud.
>>536583880I love the esthetic of the lateen rig.
thank you for all the niggers jewmanbut both romans and greeks dominated without the needs of bringing niggersnow we ve got aids, a chinese superpower that releases bioweapons and we re on the verge of destruction
Is this the thread?
>>536584080>but both romans and greeks dominated without the needs of bringing niggersNever made it around Africa to spite the arabs, never made it to the New World to spite the indians, never made it to the Far Orient to spite the slants. Cope, froggy (although you were an admirable contributor to the global dominance effort, so I reluctantly salute you.)
>>536583880isso!
>>536584280>big = better>couldn't even make it far from the coast much less across the PacificPathetic. And quite the David v. Goliath mirror. Smarts and speed over brawn.
>>536584280You should look up the Lorcha. It was a Portuguese hull with junk rigging. A favorite combination with pirates because of it's speed, maneuverability and easy of handling with a reduced crew.
Are twin keels good for beaching in sand? But I agree, they need to bring back wind based trade.
>>536584608God, what a beaut'. Thanks for the revelation, leafbro.
>>536583880I believe I found OP's caravel.In my Portugal folder. Pic was taken in 2023.
>>536585638Did you like it here?
the best i can do is say i enjoy vidya involving those boats and am slightly bummed out our navy is fucked beyond belief
I would have a monkey instead of a parrot. I bet I could teach a monkey how to sail, that would be cool
>>536585838I did. I always do. I live for at least half of the year in the Algarve. Not in the hot summer months though. Portugal precisa de uma limpeza rrrradical!
>>536586074Parrots are cooler.
