Carrack

Carracks are ships that were released with the Ship Customization update. Brigs were first announced on the POTCO YouTube Channel, and were released on test server on October 7, 2011. A jack of all trades but a master of none, Brigs are a good mix of strength, speed, and cargo space. A perfect combination of all the other ship types. They were brought to live servers on December 14, 2011.

History
"A brig is a sailing vessel with two square-rigged masts. During the Age of Sail, brigs were seen as fast and maneuverable and were used as both naval warships and merchant vessels. They were especially popular in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Brigs fell out of use with the arrival of the steam ship because they required a relatively large crew for their small size and were difficult to sail into the wind. They are not to be confused with a brigantine which has different rigging. In the narrow technical field of sailing rigs, a brig is distinct from a three-masted ship by virtue of only having two masts." - quoted from Wikipedia
