How were caravels better?

Caravels were better than earlier ships due to their advanced design, which included a lighter build and a lateen sail rig that allowed for greater maneuverability and speed. This made them more effective for exploration and navigation along coastlines and in shallow waters. Additionally, their ability to sail closer to the wind enabled explorers to venture further into uncharted territories.
