A carrack is a type of sailing ship that was used for long-distance travel during the Age of Exploration, typically reaching speeds of 4-8 knots (4.6-9.2 mph).
The carrack was a ship type invented in southern Europe in the 15th century, and was one of the most influential ship designs in history. It was a larger vessel than the caravel. Columbus's ship, the Santa Maria was a famous example of a carrack.
A carrack is a large ship used primarily for transporting merchandise. It was in use from about the 14th to the 17th century.
The largest Spanish sailiing ships of this date were called Carrack's
The Santa Maria ship was a Carrack also known as (Nao) which is portuguese for "ship."
Somewhere around the mids 1400. The Hanseatic League had their first in 1462, the "Peter von Danzig". Since the carrack is atributed to Portuguese sailors, and since it seems they used caravels to discover "Madeira and Azores" in 1427+-, i guees it should be somewhere between 1430 and 1460.
