These impressive vessels were distinguished by their towering height and larger size compared to regular galleys. With up to 32 oars, each manned by a team of five men, these ships possessed unparalleled power and maneuverability on the high seas. The galleass featured in this image is adorned with three majestic masts that proudly display its sails.
