Caravel Sail Mug
The Caravel Sail is a sail that evolved from Lateen Sails both of which have strong Austronesian influences. Yes — there is strong circumstantial and structural evidence that the caravel sails of the Portuguese, especially their lateen rigging, were influenced by earlier Austronesian sailing technology, particularly the crab-claw sail used on paraw and proa vessels. Let’s break this down: --- 🔹 1. Portuguese Caravel and Lateen Sails The caravel (15th century) was the main exploration ship of Portugal during the Age of Discovery. It used lateen sails (triangular sails on angled masts), which allowed it to tack against the wind, unlike square-rigged European ships. This innovation was critical for long-distance ocean voyages, including to India, Africa, and later Asia and the Philippines. --- 🔹 2. Austronesian Crab-Claw Sails — The Original Triangular Sails Austronesians had already been using crab-claw sails for over 3,000 years before the caravel. These sails were highly efficient, capable of upwind sailing, speed, and maneuverability. Found in: Philippine paraw Indonesian prahu Micronesian proa The mast was often tilted forward, similar to the lateen sail structure.

unlike most mug customization, you can say whatever the fuck you want. Bravo!
i liked that the mug had my name on it and a funny definition, i will definitely buy some for my friends(with their names of course).
I bought it as sort of a gag gift for my son and his new girlfriend and they loved it
I haven't even bought it, it smells nice
nice quality, vivid image
What's funny is the saying that everyone searched for is the one that popped up on the cup. So all the weird gross sayings that people are commenting on are completely out of context to everyone seeing their comment.
I would buy a morbillion of these mugs.
Coffee is good with a banana (minus the Shimflins!)
It was a good gift

EVERY mug I have ordered online through Urban Dictionary has exceeded my expectations! Each (5) is of a very high quality: Clear/Clean printing (ink, color, sharpness, clarity), and Outstanding craftsmanship ("feels" good to hold, and you can tell it "ain't made cheap"). Your company should be proud, indeed.
love it
one tha best mugs i have
My balls are so wet now that I have bought this item. The nut in my butt is boiling
I've had this mug for over a year now and every single day it watches while I shower. It makes me safe sometimes protects me from the voices. Other times I'm lying on the couch watching judge Judy and eating my hot pickles and the mug becomes angry I feel it approaching me with menacing aura. Next thing I know I'm pooing out pieces of ceramic. Overall, its a great mug but only if you can afford multiple colonoscopy's and extremely invasive anal procedures a year. If you have the money for that THIS IS THE MUG FOR YOU.
This mug has given me a new meaning to wake up everyday. I absolutely adore it and I don’t think my life would be the same if this mug did not exist. A gift from God, truly.
What a sexy ass mug ヾ(*’O’*)/
