Synopsis

This diagram shows a Roman merchant ship with full sails, castle, hull and foremast. The bow of the ship is on the right of the page and the stern on the left. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. In the top centre of the image is the mast with two triangular shaped sails on either side. Down the image is a large full sail and the bottom of the mast. The hull of the ship is at the bottom of the page. On the left side of the hull is the elaborately decorated stern. Slightly towards the right is the castle, which is a cabin-like structure. Down is the large steering oar. Right along the hull of the boat is the bow and up from this, the small foremast with a sail. On the left and right side of the hull is a dashed line which represents the water level, showing how far the boat sits in the water.
