I see a major mistake here.Ships of those days were not steered by a steering wheel but with a whipstaff.This whipstaff was a post positioned below decks and was attached to a tiller, which is a beam that ran below decks and was attached to the rudder on the stern of the vessel.Steering wheels came into use during the first quarter of the seventeen hundreds.
Good work!! I loved you mentioned sailing along South Shields.You just turned my mind back in sixties being at that places of North East of England❤❤❤❤
Es magnífico como trabajaba las personas y el conocimiento y inteligencia que tenían para construir esos barcos con tanto trabajo
Excelente vídeo y gracias, que suerte poder navegar en el galeón, yo vivo en Andalucía y jamas he podido ver este barco, un saludo!
