Sailing

While the Arabs are generally credited with this, their boats were often constructed from the wood found in the forests of India. So far, it's hard to say.

yes they did they built them to trade, fight, and fish.

Being the first European to see the Pacific Ocean, he got to name it. Then he was the first to cross it. He got to it through what are now called the Strait of Magellan, named the Magellanic Penguin as well as the Magellanic clouds.

By my reckoning it would take an awfully long time- possibly even 150-200 years. I suppose you could cheat slightly and attach some form of runners or wheels to the bottom of your boat to make it easier between the bodies of water but I think you could still get stuck on some mountainous sections for months perhaps years waiting for a strong enough breeze in the right direction. Anyway, its something that's never been attempted so good luck and don't listen to the doubters.

1910 it was built then it sunk on 1912
The Titanic set sail to New York in 1912.

He set sail in 1895, and returned more than 3 years later in 1898.

Schooners were initially used as fishing vessels starting around the 16th century. They were used for hundreds of years until being mostly replaced by steam powered engines.

The Arabella was the ship that brought Puritans to Salem.

A brig is one type of two-masted sailing vessel. More specifically, a brig is a vessel with two square-rigged masts. This means that the two masts have square sails, as opposed to a vessel that is bermuda-rigged (triangle-shaped sails).

There are other types of two-masted sailing vessels:

Brigantine

Brig or Brig-schooner

Ketch

Koch (type not based on rigging)

Schooner

Yawl.

Of these, the ketch, schooner, and yawl still remain somewhat popular today.

The first civilization that invented the sailboat was the Sumerians.

His motivation was that he would get rewarded if he completed

Many societies in prehistoric times built sailboats, from the Chinese, Japanese, and Polynesian islands to the Egyptians and Phoenicians. The development was most notable in the Mediterranean Sea, and the waters around SE Asia. By the time of the European explorers of the 14th and 15th century, sailboats had become ocean-going ships. These ships, which visited nearly all the regions of the world, had an influence on the world's global cultures from that point on.

I first heard this phrase from an ex-signalman sailor from WW1.

Used when a tea trolley was being pushed across the hospital ward, I took it to mean 'If you stay right there you'll be run down'.

Checking with a petty officer R.N. he agreed this was one useage but didn't say what the others were.

Sloop, cutter, or possibly day-sailer.

...is to 'circumnavigate'.

Gil Eanes was the first person to sail beyond Cape Bojador.

The advantages was Portuguese ships began making expedition in search of a sea route to Asia. The disadvantages of sailing west from Europe to Asia is they had no maps that showed the world correctly. Christopher Columbus did

Lanteen sails are still made

Sorry, please re-phrase the question....

sail

The line at the lower part of the hull is the water line. Its location shows if a ship is riding high in the water or if it can't be seen then a ship is riding low in the water.

It's lift. Like an airplane wing, a sail is an airfoil only vertical. As it passes through the air, the curved shape of the sail causes the air on the outside of the sail to go further and therefore, faster, than the air on the inside of the sail. According to Bernoulli's Principle, when the airflow increases, the pressure drops so the pressure on the underside of the airfoil becomes greater and "lifts" or pushes the sailboat along. See the link below for more information on Bernoulli's Principle.

Some recent innovations in sailing are the use of carbon fibre in sailboat constuction. Another innvation was putting roach in mainsails. Another innovation was the use of hydrofoils.
