the caravel was a small, very maneuverable ship which could sail with a high precision on long discovery journeys. although designs varied, a caravel had a foresail, a square mainsail and lateen mizzen. its smaller size limited the number of guns onboard, but it also meant that this light ship could explore shallow coastal waters and estuaries. vasco da gama, cabot, columbus and magellan used caravels during their late xvth century and early xvith century voyages.

Portuguese

a caravela era um barco pequeno, muito manobrável, que podia navegar com uma grande precisão durante longas viagens de descobrimento. embora os modelos variassem, uma caravela podia ter um traquete, uma vela mestra quadrangular e uma mezena latina. seu menor tamanho limitava a quantidade de canhões à bordo, mas também fazia com que este pequeno barco pudesse explorar águas costeiras pouco profundas e estuários. vasco da gama, cabot, colombo e magalhães utilizaram caravelas em suas viagens durante o final do século xv e início do xvi.
