Medieval sailing vessel:
I'm not sure if this is a cog or another type of sailing vessel. It was in Cannes, France
It is square rigged, with steering oars on both sides. I don't see evidence of a foresail nor a topsail. I note another yard and sail on the pier. The mainyard appears to be two spars lashed together to make a longer yardarm.
I'd appreciate more information about this one! I couldn't get closer because the pier was gated.

Sight-seeing square rigger (under engine power at the moment, so hope it still ok to post in this thread) at the mouth of the East River near the southern tip of Manhattan.
