Cairuils
Cairuils are post-Kin-Strife Nùmenòrean caravels rigged with square sails. In some cases an umbarean Rochros was converted to a Cairuil by moving the largest mast back to the centre of the ship and the second mast forward to the forecastle, then recutting the sails to fit the yards. They are slower but more easily handled by the less experienced Nùmenòrean shipmates.

Nùmenòrean galleasses are usually rigged in the way of a carrack. Galley-type armoured ram is fitted to the bows and the overhanging deck is used to board the enemy ship. Some galleasses have armoured forecastles with naptha throwers.
