CHEBEC
In 1750, her Majesty Antoine Louise de Rouille of Joury ordered the construction
of four vessels named 'CHEBEC". Two among them, "LE REQUIN" and "INDISCRET"
weighed 260 tonnages with an armament of 24 cannons, while the other two the
"RUSE" and the "SERPENT" had only 150 tonnages with an armament of 18 cannons.
The "CHEBEC", a name which was associated not only with attacks and exploits,
was also a very good battle wind-jammer. Here, it should be noted that it
was on this type of vessel that the Captain Bavastro of Nice fought against
two English vessels. With a length of 79m and a width of 23m, the French "CHEBEC"
remained one of the best sailing vessels of Europe in the XVIII century. She
had many similarities with other galleys.
CHEBEC
En 1750, le Compte de Joury, Antoine De Rouille mit en chantier le "CHEBEC"
qui avait beaucoup de resemblances aux autre galeres, mais l'utilisation de
ses voiles etait plus pousee et sa grande maniabilite lui aidait dans ces
engagements avec des navires assez lourd a manoeuvrer. " LE CHEBEC", un nom
qui evoque les attaques et les exploits, etait surtout un tres bon voilier
de combats, a noter que c'etait a bord d'un tel navire que le Captaine Bavastro
de Nice, livra un manifique combat entre deux navires Anglais. Avec une longeur
de 79m et une largeur de 13m "LE CHEBEC", navire francaise, resterait un des
plus fins voiliers de L'Europe au XVII siecle.
