The sambuk has a cabin area at the stern of the vessel; which is divided into a large living area for the crew and passengers, with smaller rooms for the officers.  The sambuk is navigated with a stern-mounted rudder and lateen (triangular) sails, and is capable of making deep water journeys, although it is never a comfortable passage.

 {{ :consolidated:shiptypes:arabicgalley.png?100|}}**The Dromon** is a large galley used by Sakharan military forces, although they are rare and expensive to run.  While they have a ram and a battery of ballistae, their primary tactic is to close and overwhelm the crew of the enemy vessel, making best use of their large crew.  Many rowers board the enemy vessel alongside the ship's marines. Once the heart  of the Sakaran fleet, now only a few cities maintain a Mamluka crewed Dromon. {{ :consolidated:shiptypes:arabicgalley.png?100|}}**The Dromon** is a large galley used by Sakharan military forces, although they are rare and expensive to run.  While they have a ram and a battery of ballistae, their primary tactic is to close and overwhelm the crew of the enemy vessel, making best use of their large crew.  Many rowers board the enemy vessel alongside the ship's marines.
