Javier's Boat

A Traditionally Rigged Small Craft from Spain

Javier and his wife live in a small village near Barcelona, Spain. He writes that he is interested in preserving this sailing rig ("vela latina"), a traditional rig of the Mediterranean, and is a member of a club with that objective. He'd like to correspond with anyone else interested in this rig, which has roots in ancient Greek and Egyptian craft of bygone centuries.
