Coastal Cargo Sailing Ship Replica

⚓ Overview of the Pelig Ship

The Pelig is a historic coastal cargo sailing ship featuring two masts and a hull reminiscent of the trabaccalo, with round sides, a round bottom, and a keel. These vessels typically measure 11 to 27 meters in length, up to 6 meters in width, and up to 2.5 meters in height, with a carrying capacity ranging from 20 to 100 tons.

During later stages of its development, the Pelig evolved with a tapered bow and narrower stern, similar to the lugger. Its key distinction from the trabaccalo lies in its sails: the stern mast carries a gaff sail with a gaff topsail, instead of the boomed standing lugsail found on the trabaccalo. In the final stage of development, some Peligs even feature a crossed sail atop the masts, adding elegance and sailing versatility.
