Galleass
Military ship commonly used in the 16th and 17th centuries by European and Mediterranean navies / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about heavy military galleys. For the trade vessels used on the Baltic Sea, see Galeas.
A galleass was a warship that combined the sails and armament of a galleon with the maneuverability of the oared galley.[1] While never quite matching up to the full expectations for its design, the galleass nevertheless remained in use during the 16th and 17th centuries.[2]
