pretty good, unless you were a slave on those ships
There were at least 130 sea men on slave ships.
Slave ships primarily included merchant vessels, such as brigs, barques, and schooners, which were adapted for the transatlantic slave trade. These ships were often modified to maximize cargo space, allowing them to carry a large number of enslaved individuals in cramped and inhumane conditions. The notorious "slave ship" design featured a tightly packed layout with minimal ventilation and sanitation, leading to high mortality rates during voyages. Additionally, some naval ships were repurposed for this grim trade.
Slaves were manacled and packed tightly into the holds of the slave ships.
The Slave Trade
Conditions on slave ships were bad for many reasons. Food was sometimes in short supply and they didn't have good ways to keep it fresh. There was no real medical care to speak of, and diseases spread quickly. Most times, the slaves were chained together and packed in so tightly, they could barely move.
Slaves on slave ships were typically given minimal clothing such as loincloths or simple garments. The conditions on these ships were often overcrowded, unsanitary, and lacked proper provisions, so clothing was basic and inadequate.
Slave trade ships were known to have foul odors due to overcrowding, unsanitary conditions, and the presence of human waste, sickness, and death. The smell would have been a combination of sweat, vomit, feces, urine, and the overall stench of suffering and despair.
