THE COG DEVELOPED FROM THE SCANDINAVIAN TRADITION OF BOAT BUILDING AROUND 1000 A.D., AND WAS A SUCCESSFUL VESSEL TYPE UNTIL SUPERSEDED BY THE CARRACK CIRCA 1450. FROM ABOUT 1250-1450, THE COG UNDERWENT VAST CHANGES BECOMING THE PREDOMINANT NORTHERN EUROPEAN CARGO VESSEL AND MAN-OF-WAR. THEIR SIZE MAY HAVE BEEN APPROXIMATELY 30 METRES LONG X 9.5 METRES WIDE, MAKING IT A VERY BEAMY SHIP WITH A LENGTH/BREADTH RADIO OF 3:1. THE EARLY VESSELS WERE OF SHELL FIRST/CLINKER BUILT CONSTRUCTION, WITH FLAT BOTTOMS AND SIDE RUDDERS. THEY WERE DOUBLE ENDED WITH RAKED STEM AND STERN POSTS, AND LIGHT, TEMPORARY "CASTLES" WERE SET ON THE BOW AND STERN. DURING THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY, THE STERN BECAME MORE VERTICAL AS THE STERN RUDDER APPEARED, AND THE FORE AND AFTER CASTLES BEGAN TO BE INCORPORATED INTO THE HULL PROPER. IN THE LATE FOURTEENTH CENTURY, SHIP BUILDERS WERE CONSTRUCTING COGS WITH A MORE ROUNDED HULL AND BOW, FEATURES INTEGRATED FROM ITS CONTEMPORARY COMPETITOR MERCHANTMAN, THE HULK. THE TYPICAL COG POSSESSED ONE MAST AT MIDSHIP WITH A SQUARE SAIL, BUT AFTER THE VESSEL'S INTRODUCTION INTO THE MEDITERRANEAN (LATE 14TH CENTURY), VERSIONS ARE DEPICTED WITH A SMALL MAST AFT, HOLDING A LATEEN.
