title   History   title

The MISTICQUE was built in the Marseille shipyards around the middle of the eighteenth century, and sailed until the beginning of the nineteenth. She was a three master, being equipped with a lateen sail in the foremast, and square sails on both the main and mixen masts. If becalmed or in difficulties with her sails, she could revert to her oars. To all extents and purposes her hull is that of a xebec, thus earning the ship her title of "Polacre-Xebec". She was a trading vessel, but to defend herself by pirate attacks, she was provided with 18 guns.

Le MISTICQUE fut lancé dans les chantiers de Marseille vers la moitié du XVIIIe siècle, pour achever ses jours au début du XIXe. C'était un voilier particulier à trois mâts, équipé d'une voile de trinquet et de voiles carrées au grand-mât et à l'artimon. Compte tenu des caractéristiques de la coque et de l'équipement, ce voilier est appelé aussi "chebec à la polonaise". Il déploya une activité marchande; cependant, pour se défendre d'éventuelles attaques de pirates, le navire était aussi armé de 18 canons.
