The Company has one of the biggest ships in Rijeka, but after initial efforts, the Company
stops shipbuilding and shipping. The list provides insight into the number, variety, and
size of domestic ships, as well as crew size and deadweight, and the importance of the
weapons that larger ships have. There are two types of cannons: those with iron and
those with stone balls (Petriere). Source: DARI, JU 4, vol. 18.
