Guessed it's time for me to dip my toes into shipbu scale

(WIP)
Transvetran Navy Xebec, of Gorali origin.
circa 1693

simply put:
++ fast
++ quick to turn
+ stable with deep draft
+ 24-32pdrs idk
-- relatively limited hull space
-- deep draft
--- flimsy mainmast yard (fatal blunder)

mainmast yard would be taken away by a squall in battle, then she will get captured and refitted as a poleacre.
