XEBEC -
ARMED VESSEL 1753 |
Used by
Barbary pirates, xebecs were equipped with both sails and oars.
They featured a distinctive hull with overhanging bow and stern.
The lateen rig allowed it to sail close hauled to the wind,
giving it an advantage in pursuit or escape. The oars allowed
the xebec to approach vessels that were becalmed.
Sea-going Mediterranean peoples used xebecs as corsairs and
built them with a narrow floor to achieve a higher speed than
their victims, but with a considerable beam that enable them to
carry an extensive sail plan. They carried a crew of 300 - 400
men and mounted 16 - 40 guns.
Amati’s
kit features laser cut keel and frames, wooden masts and spars,
cloth sails and flags. Fittings are wood and metal. Armament
consists of 14 metal cannon and 6 swivel guns. Construction
plans show great detail, but step-by-step instructions are not
included.
