Tserniki vessel of Mykonos Island
The model represents a Gr. traditional vessel known as "Tserniki of Mykonos Isl.” rigged with a "Half-lateen sail".
It's was a version of standard "Tserniki" vessel but with a raised stern post.
The "half-lateen sail” rigging for some ones was considered also as "Sakoleva” rigging, although there are differences.
It was a small merchant and fishing vessel at early of 19 century and can be seen in old photos of Cyclades Islands.
Scale: 1:24 - Length: 60cm - Width:13 cm - Height: 55 cm

A4. Greek traditional ship model named "Bombarda Sabatiera"
The model represents the Greek traditional vessel "Trechantiri" with an old type of rigging.
It's a version of "Polacra" rigging where on the standard one (called just "Bombarda") there was a gaff sail and its topsail on the mizzen. In this version there's a big lug sail.
This type of rigging was appeared in Greece at early of 19 century and she was called "Bombarda Sabatiera".
Both types of rigging were used on commercial transportation vessels.
Thanks
