To be honest, we cant wait, too
The testing procedure will involve installation of a ship power engine, so that we can get a feel for the ship maneuverability. Then we will do tests using rows and at last, when we know what we can expect, we will raise the detachable mast and try sailing. This ship is very specific with sail handling, as it can only utilize back wind and partially side wind. The captain must be very quick to react to adjust to the currents and winds, because too much of strong side wind can eventually make the ship roll over.

In the old times, people were much closer to each other. The firing range of their weapons simply wasnt long enough
