Anger of the Hellenes Edition
Talk about botes, bote based wargaming and RPGs, and maybe even a certain bote based vidya that tickles our autism in just the right way.

Nice looking piece of woodwork there. I wound up reading about her after seeing the pic. It got me wondering though how they kept them dry in high seas. Did they have canvas around the lowest tier of oars, or something else to keep out water? And for that matter, did ships like this have any sort of bilge and hand operated bilge pumps? Know next to nothing about this period of ship construction.
>did ships like this have any sort of bilge and hand operated bilge pumps?
Not OP but at least, as far as I know which really isn't that much when it comes to boats to the ancient greek and roman times, there are references to bilges in ancient texts that mention seagoing boats and that stuff like buckets or Archimedes' screws were used to remove water from it.
It wasn't so muhc a dedicated bilge, but the space where tehy stowed the stone ballast served that purpose.
And yeah, they had pumps.
