junk ship 3d model

A Chinese junk is a traditional sailing vessel distinguished by its **lack of a keel** beneath the hull. Instead, it has a relatively flat bottom, allowing the ship to navigate shallow waters and approach river mouths or coastal areas easily. The hull is typically divided into watertight compartments to prevent sinking if damaged, and it uses battened sails with horizontal ribs that help distribute wind force and make handling easier. Overall, its design is well suited for trade and cargo transport across seas and rivers.
